Answer:

A) By applying a known force, and measuring it's acceleration.

Explanation:

This is actually something that astronauts do in space as a mathmatical exercise when calculating the mass of an object since F = m × a.

Once the force, and acceleration are applied, the only unknown is the mass which can be solved by dividing force over acceleration. This is because inertial mass is equal to gravitational mass.
