Question

What is the mass of a 330 N television? The acceleration due to gravity at the surface of Earth is 9.8 m/s^2

Answer 1

Answer: 33.7kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Newton's 2nd Law, the force of gravity is equal to the mass times the acceleration:

`F=ma`

The force would be the weight due to the gravitational field. And the acceleration would be the one due to gravity:

`330N=m(9.8m/s^2)`

`m=330/9.8`

`m=33.7kg`
