For this case we have to by definition, according to Newton's second law that:


F = m * a

Where:

F: Strength

m: Mass

a: Acceleration

In this case we have to:


W = m * g

Where:

W: It is the weight

m: It's the dough

g: It is the acceleration of gravity

We have as data that:


W = 10N\\g = 9.8 \frac {m} {s ^ 2}

So:


m = \frac {W} {g}\\m = \frac {10} {9.8}\\m = 1.02kg

The mass is 1.02 kg

Answer:

The mass is 1.02 kg
