A bucket is full of oil. The total mass of the bucket of oil is 5.4kg and the gravitational field strength is 10N\kg. Calculate the total weight of the bucket of oil

Respuesta :

This question involves the concepts of gravitational field strength and mass of the object.

The total weight of the bucket of oil is "54 N".

The gravitational field strength is defined as the weight of an object in the gravitational field per unit mass of the object. Hence, mathematically it can be written as follows:

[tex]S-\frac{W}{m}\\\\W= (S )(m)[/tex]

where,

W = weight of the bucket of oil = ?

S = gravitational field strength = 10 N/kg

m = mass od the bucket of oil = 5.4 kg

Therefore,

[tex]W=(10\ N/kg)(5.4\ kg)\\[/tex]

W = 54 N
