An astronaut has a mass of 60kg.what is her weight here on earth

60

weight = newtons

100g = 1newton

To calculate the weight of an object on Earth, we need to consider the force of gravity acting on it. The weight of an object is given by the formula:

Weight = Mass x Acceleration due to gravity

The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is approximately 9.8 meters per second squared (9.8 m/s^2). Therefore, we can calculate the weight of the astronaut by multiplying her mass by the acceleration due to gravity:

Weight = 60 kg x 9.8 m/s^2
Weight ≈ 588 Newtons

So, the weight of the astronaut on Earth is approximately 588 Newtons.

weight = mg

what is g? Now do the math. weight is measured in Newtons (N).
