Question

If the mass of an object is 14 lbm, what is its weight, in lbf, at a location where g = 32.0 ft/s2?

Answer 1

Using the formula:

w = m x g ....... eq1

here w is weight of the object.

m is mass of the object, and

g is the acceleration of gravity.

mass, m = 14 lbm (given)

acceleration of gravity, g= 32.0 ft/$s^{2}$

Now, substituting the values in equation (1):

w = 14lbm x 32.0 ft/$s^{2}$ = 448 lbm ft/$s^{2}$

since, 1 lbf = 32.174 lbm ft/$s^{2}$

so, w = 448 x $\frac{1}{32.174}$

w = 13.924lbf

Hence, the mass of an object is 13.924 lbf.
