Answer:

gravitation field strength: 5 N/kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight(N) = mass(kg) * gravitational field strength(N/kg)

  • Here given the mass: 5 kg and weight: 25 N

make sure the units are proper and make change only if different units visible. Like mass given in grams and covert it into kg. *must* and sometimes weight given in kilo-newton covert it into Newtons. *must*

using the formula:

5 * gravitational field strength = 25

gravitational field strength = 25/5

gravitational field strength = 5 N/kg
