Question

The force of gravity
on a
resting block is 150 N. What is the mass of the block?

Answer 1

Mass = 15 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Force =150 N

Mass = ?

Acceleration due to gravity = 10m/s

`force = mass * acceleration \\ mass = (force)/(acceleration)`

Substitute values into the given equation

`mass = (150)/(10)`

Simplify

`mass = 15 \: kg`

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Mass = Weight / g = 150N / (9.8m/s²) = 15.3kg.
