The weight of an object is taken to be the force on the object due to gravity. The weight ( W ) is the product of the mass ( m ) of the object and the magnitude of the gravitational acceleration ( g ).
On Earth: g = 9.81 m/s²
m = 20 kg
W = m · g = 20 kg · 9.81 m/s² = 196.2 N

the acceleration due to gravity on earth is 9.80 m/s2. if the mass of a giraffe is 1,470 kg, what is the weight of the giraffe?
Brrunno [24]
Weight  = Mass * gravity

             =  1470* 9.8 = 14406 N  ≈ 14,400 N

How many electrons pass through a standard 60 watt light bulb in one second?
timofeeve [1]
A standard 60 W light bulb has a voltage of 130 volts. So, we use this conversion, the Faraday's constant which is equal to approximately 96,500 Coulombs per mole electron, and the Avogadro's number equal to 6.022×10²³ particles/mole . The solution is as follows:

W = Energy/time
60 W = x J/1 s
x = 60 J = 60 C·V

(60 C·V)*(1/130 V)*(1 mole e/96,500 C)*(6.022×10²³ electrons/mole electron)
= 2.88×10¹⁸ electrons
