Answer: the weight of the box is 980N
Step-by-step explanation:
The weight an object has is defined as the force of gravity acting on that object which is given as
w =m x g
Since weight is defined as a force, it can also be written as
w=mg
= F= mg
where m= mass of the object in kg given as 100Kg
an g is the gravitational acceleration in m/s^2 = g is 9.8 m/s2
F= mg
F = 100 kg x 9.8 m/s2
F== 980Kgm/s^2 = 980N
Therefore the weight of the box is 980N
