A force of 1.25x103N is required to lift an object that is under the influence of an acceleration due to gravity of 7.86ft/sec2.

What is the object's mass in kilograms?

Answer:

Mass= 520.83 kg

Explanation:

Newton's second law states

Force = mass *acceleration

The force applied must be equal to the weight of the object to lift it ignoring frictional forces and resistances.

therefore weight= force

so W= mg where g is the acceleration due to gravity

therefore 1.25*103 N= m * 7.86 ft /sec square

But  SI unit of g is m/sec square

1 ft = 0.3048 m

therefore multiplying 7.86 ft with 0.3048 m=  2.395= 2.4 m to get the value in meters.

W= mg

m = W/g=1.25*10³ /2.4= 1250/2.4= 520.833 kg

You weigh 716 newtons on Earth. You
Otrada [13]

Answer:

537 N

Explanation:

The force due to gravity of a planet is:

F = GMm / r²

where G is the universal gravitational constant

M is the mass of the planet

m is the mass of the object

and r is the distance between the object and the center of the planet

On Earth, you weigh 716 N, so:

716 N = GMm / r²

On planet X:

F = G (3M) m / (2r)²

F = 3/4 GMm / r²

F = 3/4 (716 N)

F = 537 N
