Answer:

471 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight is just another word for the force of gravity.

​Weight is a force that acts at all times on all objects near Earth. The Earth pulls on all objects with a force of gravity downward toward the center of the Earth (g-9.81 m/s2)

so we can simply say

weight =mass * gravitaitonal acceleraition

= 48 * 9.81

=470.88 N

= 471 N
