#1.) If the force of gravity on a human is 539 N determine the mass of the human.
To determine the mass of the human, we can use Newton's second law of motion, which states that force (F) is equal to mass (m) multiplied by acceleration (a). In this case, the force of gravity (F) is equal to the weight of the human.
Step 1: Convert the force of gravity from Newtons (N) to kilograms (kg). Divide the force of gravity by the acceleration due to gravity, which is approximately 9.8 m/s^2.
539 N / 9.8 m/s^2 = 55.1 kg
Therefore, the mass of the human is approximately 55.1 kilograms.
