Question

What is the weight of an object (mass = 60 kilograms) on Mars, where the acceleration due to gravity is 3.75 meters/second2?
A.
1.6 newtons
B.
16 newtons
C.
22.5 newtons
D.
225 newtons
E.
2250 newtons

Answer 1

Answer:

Weight of an object = 225 newtons

Explanation:

Given:

Mass = 60 kilograms

Acceleration due to gravity = 3.75 m/s²

Find:

Weight of an object

Computation:

Weight of an object = Mass x Acceleration due to gravity

Weight of an object = 60 x 3.75

Weight of an object = 225 newtons
