Weight = mg where m = mass and g = gravity = 10 (9.81....)
so m = w/g = 4.9 / 10(9.81....) = 0.49 (0.49949....)
if you get given g as 10, answer is 0.49 kg 
if you get given g as 9.81, answer is 0.50 (1sf)

Answer:

The grapefruit's mass is 0.5 kg.

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight = 4.9 N

We need to calculate the mass

Using formula of newton's second law

F = mg

m = \dfrac{F}{g}

Where, F = weight on earth

g = acceleration due to gravity

Put the value into the formula

m = \dfrac{4.9}{9.8}

m =0.5\ kg

Hence, The grapefruit's mass is 0.5 kg.

How does the atmosphere’s interaction with different wavelengths of light help to protect life on earth?
marishachu [46]

Answer:

Ozone layer in the upper atmosphere filters most of the harmful radiations of shorter wavelength. It actually absorbs the hazardous radiations like ultraviolet, gamma rays, x- rays and most of all those having shorter wavelength then the visible light. That's how the earth's atmosphere protects life on earth. But unfortunately, climate change and global warming is causing the depletion of ozone layer which is causing skin related diseases and harming not only the human life but also the plants and animals.
