Answer:

The weight of the bird is equal to 7.28 N.

Step-by-step explanation:

The upward force acting on the bird = 7.28 N

The bird is climbing at a constant rate of 1 m/s.

We need to find the weight of the bird.

We know that the weight of an object is the force of gravity acting on it. It can be calculated as follows :

W = mg

In this case, 7.28 N of force is acting on the object. Hence, the weight of the bird is equal to 7.28 N.
