Answer:

If a car weighs 6310 N on earth, its mass = 643.22 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of a body is given by the product of it's mass and acceleration due to gravity on that planet.

So weight of body in earth = mass of body* acceleration due to gravity on earth.

Acceleration due to gravity in earth =
9.8m/s^2

Here it is given weight of car = 6310 N

So we have, 6310 = mass of car* 9.81

Mass of car = 6310/9.81 = 643.22 kg.

So If a car weighs 6310 N on earth, its mass = 643.22 kg.
