Question

A box weighs 34 N on Earth. What is the mass of the box? 3.47 kg 333.2 kg 115.6 kg 10 kg

Answer 1

Well, an object's weight on earth is its mass times 9.80 N/kg.
So, 34N = (mass)(9.80N/kg)
Divide both sides by 9.80 to get.....
mass = 3.47kg.
So the correct answer is 3.47 kg
Hope this helped! :)

Answer 2

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is known that weight is equal to mass times acceleration due to gravity.

Mathematically, Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity

Since, it is given that weight is 34 N and it is known value of g is 9.8 m/s.

Therefore, calculate mass of the box as follows.

Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity

34 N = mass × 9.8 m/s

mass = 3.47 kg

Hence, we can conclude that mass of the box is 3.47 kg.
