Question

A television has a mass of 19 kg. What is the weight of the television?

Answer 1

That depends on how far it is from the nearest planet. If it's on the surface of Earth, it weighs (19 kg) x (9.8 m/s^2) = 186.2 newtons.

Answer 2

Answer:

W = 186.2 N

Explanation:

Weight is defined as the gravitational force on an object which are near the surface of Earth

So it is given by

$F = mg$

here we know that mass of the television is given as

m = 19 kg

so its weight is given by

$W = mg$

$W = 19 \times 9.8$

$W = 186.2 N$
