Question

A tricycle has a weight of 22 newtons when on earth. how much mass does the tricycle have?

Answer 1

In order to calculate the object's mass, we can use the formula for the weight:

`\text{weight}=\text{mass}\cdot\text{gravity}`

Using the gravity acceleration equal to 9.8 m/s², we have:

`\begin{gathered} 22=\text{mass}\cdot9.8 \\ \text{mass}=(22)/(9.8) \\ \text{mass}=2.245\text{ kg} \end{gathered}`
