Answer:

Weight = 419.44 Newton

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 42.8 kg

We know that the acceleration due to gravity of all physical objects on Earth is 9.8 m/s².

To find weight, we would use the following formula;

Weight = mass * acceleration due to gravity

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Weight = 42.8 * 9.8

Weight = 419.44 Newton
