Gravity on the surface of the moon is only 1/6 as strong as gravity on the Earth.
What is the weight of a 24 kg object on the Earth? The acceleration of gravity is 10m/s2 .
Wt = m*g = 24kg * 10N/kg = 240 N.
To calculate the weight of an object on Earth, we can use the formula:
Weight = mass x gravitational acceleration
Given:
Mass of the object (m) = 24 kg
Gravitational acceleration (g) = 10 m/s^2
Using these values, we can calculate the weight of the object on Earth:
Weight on Earth = 24 kg x 10 m/s^2
Weight on Earth = 240 N (Newtons)
Therefore, the weight of the 24 kg object on the Earth is 240 Newtons.
To calculate the weight of an object on Earth, we can use the formula:
Weight = Mass × Acceleration due to gravity
Given:
Mass of the object = 24 kg
Acceleration due to gravity on Earth = 10 m/s^2
Substituting the given values into the formula, we get:
Weight on Earth = 24 kg × 10 m/s^2
Weight on Earth = 240 kg·m/s^2
The unit of weight is Newtons (N). Therefore, the weight of a 24 kg object on Earth is 240 N.
