Calculate weight of the following objects on earth (assume g=10N/kg)
A,12kg
B,500g
C,20g
D,what's the mass and weight of each of the objects if they were placed on mars(g mars=3.8N/kg)
Weight on Earth:
A: Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity = 12kg x 10N/kg = 120N
B: Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity = 0.5kg x 10N/kg = 5N
C: Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity = 0.02kg x 10N/kg = 0.2N
Weight on Mars:
A: Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity = 12kg x 3.8N/kg = 45.6N
B: Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity = 0.5kg x 3.8N/kg = 1.9N
C: Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity = 0.02kg x 3.8N/kg = 0.076N
