Question

For a person who has a mass 60 kg , calculate the weight in Newton if 1 In equals 4.45 N , then what is the person's weight in pounds

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is  a) 588.6 N   b) 132.3 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

mass = 60 kg

weight = ?

Process

1.- Write the formula of weight

     Weight = mass x gravity

gravity = 9.81 m/s²

2.- Substitution

     Weight = 60 x 9.81

3.- Result

     Weight = 588.6 kg m/s² = 588.6 N

4.- Convert Newtons to Pounds

                     1 pound -----------  4.45 N

                     x            ----------- 588.6 N

                     x = (588.6 x 1) / 4.45

                     x = 132.3 pounds
