Calculate the weight of an object with a mass of 50 kg on a planet with an acceleration due to gravity of 2.0 m/s2.
a
.04 N
b
25 N
c
100 N
The weight of an object can be calculated using the equation:
Weight = mass * acceleration due to gravity
Given:
Mass = 50 kg
Acceleration due to gravity = 2.0 m/s^2
Weight = 50 kg * 2.0 m/s^2 = 100 N
Therefore, the weight of the object is 100 N (option c).
