Question

The weight of a body is given by the formula W = mg, where W is the weight in grams, m is the mass of the body in grams, and g is the acceleration due to gravity. For Earth, g = 9.8 meters/sec2.

Find the weights of these body masses: m = {24, 37, 95, 136, 534}.

Answer 1

if the given masses are in grams then the 24 g mass has weight 0.042 * 9.8
Newtons = 0.4116 N
the other are calculated in the same way

Answer 2

m = {24, 37, 95, 136, 534}

W = mg

W = 24 × 9.8 = 235.2 grams

The weights of the bodies (in grams) are {235.2, 362.6, 931, 1,332.8, 5,233.2}.
