Answer:

1.23 m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Knowing that mg= Weight force, plug in our values 55kg*g=67.9. Divide both sides by 55 and you will get the value of acceleration due to gravity (g) which = 1.23 m/s^2

Answer:


\huge\boxed{g = 1.235\ m/s\²}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Data:

Mass = m = 55 kg (Constant)

Weight = W = 67.9 N

Required:

Acceleration due to gravity = g = ?

Formula:

W = mg

Solution:

g = W / m

g = 67.9 / 55

g = 1.235 m/s²


\rule[225]{225}{2}

Hope this helped!
