Answer:

7 kg

Explanation:

Newton's second law tells us that Force = Mass * Acceleration, also known as F = ma.

The downward acceleration due to gravity on Earth is usually taken to be 9.8 ms^-1.

Substitute the values into the equation:

68.6 = m * 9.8

Rearrange and simplify:

m = 68.6 / 9.8

m = 7 kg
