Weight expressed in Newtons is expressed in the equation whereby Weight= the mass of an object * the force of gravity. The force of gravity on earth is a constant 9.8 meters per second squared. Therefore if weight (w) = 63 N and the force of gravity is 63 N then the mass must equal 6.43 kg. Because the equation for weight is w=mg so 63 N (w) = m * 9.8 m/s^2.
