Step-by-step explanation:

If I assume you are talking about on Earth, then by using the equation

Weight Force=mg

382=(10)m

m=382/10

m=38.2 kg

Note that regardless of whether you are on Earth or any other planet or body the mass of something does not change. Only the weight of it changes as the gravitational acceleration (g) varies from planet to planet.

Answer : The mass of a dog that weighs 382 N is, 38.93 kg

Explanation :

Formula used :


F=m* g

where,

F = force = 382 N

m = mass of a dog = ?

g = acceleration due to gravity =
9.8m/s^2

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:


382N=m* 9.8m/s^2


382(kg.m)/(s^2)=m* 9.8m/s^2


m=38.98kg

Thus, the mass of a dog that weighs 382 N is, 38.93 kg
