Step-by-step explanation:

Solution,

Given:-

Mass=12 kg

Weight=117.6 N

Now,

Acceleration due to gravity=Weight/Mass

=117.6/12

=9.8 m/s²

  • Force=117.6N
  • Mass=12kg

using newtons law


\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=Mass* Acceleration


\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=(Force)/(Mass)


\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=(117.6)/(12)


\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=9.8m/s^2
