We know, weight = mass * gravity 
10 = m * 9.8
m = 10/9.8 = 1.02 Kg

Now, Let, the gravity of that planet = g'
g' = m/r²   [m,r = mass & radius of that planet ]
g' = M/10 / (1/2R)²   [M, R = mass & radius of Earth ]
g' = 4M / 10R²
g' = 2/5 * M/R²
g' = 2/5 * g   
g' = 2/5 * 9.8
g' = 3.92

Weight on that planet = planet's gravity * mass
W' = 3.92 * 1.02
W' = 4 N

In short, Your Answer would be 4 Newtons

Hope this helps!

A police car drives 100 miles in 75 minutes. What is its average speed in miles per hour?
Y_Kistochka [10]
Its average speed is 80 miles per hour because 75 minutes=1.25 hours, and the police car travels 80 miles in 1.25 hours, so I just need to take 100 divided 1.25 equal 80. As a result, the police car travels 80 miles in one hour. Hope it help!

An applied force of 50 N is used to accelerate an object, that weighs 73 N, to the right across a frictional surface. The object
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

5.38 m/s^2

Explanation:

NET force causing the object to accelerate  =  50 -10 = 40 N

Mass of the object =  73 N / 9.81 m/s^2 = 7.44 kg

F = ma

40 = 7.44 * a         a = 5.38 m/s^2

If you hit another object with your vehicle, your _____ will be slowed or stopped by the force of impact caused by that object u
konstantin123 [22]
The answer is the vehicle. At the precise moment of the impact in a collision, there is the release of energy when a vehicle strikes another vehicle or another object. Earlier to an impact, a vehicle and everything inside the vehicle is traveling at whatever speed the vehicle had been going. As the collision continues, the vehicle slowly loses energy. However, the vehicle occupants and any others items in the vehicle continue to move forward at the same speed as the vehicle had been traveling prior to impact.
