Question

In a lab, the mass of object A is 2.5 kg. Object A weighs:

A. 0.255 N
B. 24.5 N
C. 3.92 N
D. Cannot be determined

Answer 1

Weight of object = mass x acceleration due to gravity
= 2.5 x 9.8
= 24.5N

Hence option B is correct.
Hope this helps!!

Answer 2

The weight of the object is 24.5 Newton.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

The mass of an object, m = 2.5 kg

We need to find its weight. We know that the weight of an object can be calculated by the product of mass and acceleration.

W = m g

g is acceleration due to gravity.

`W=m* g`

`W=2.5\ kg* 9.8\ m/s^2`

W = 24.5 Newton

So, the mass of the object is 24.5 Newton. Hence, this is the required solution.
