Question

A 90 kg body is taken to a planet where the acceleration due to

gravity is 2.5 times that of the earth. What is the weight of this body
on the surface of this planet? Take g = 10 m/s?.

Answer 1

225 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the gravity is 2.5 times than that of the Earth, g on that planet = (10 * 2.5) m/s = 25 m/s.

Hence, the weight of the body would be (90 * 2.5) kg, aka 225 kg.

Hope this helped!
