Question

A package was determined to have a mass of 5.7 kg what's the force of gravity acting on the package on Earth

Answer 1

Given that,

mass m= 5.7 kg

Force of gravity = ?

Since,

Force of gravity acting on earth is equal to the weight and

W= mg

W= 5.7 * 9.81

W= 55.917

or

W= 56 N

Force of gravity acting on Earth by the package is 56 N.
