Question

Assume you are a fish in fresh water. you get up every morning and weigh yourself on your scales, and find you weigh 0.420 n. you, being a boxfish, are a box measuring 4.174 cm per side. you see a poor, hungry fisherman, and decide to be his dinner. you hook yourself, enjoy a last meal of worm, and then go to heaven (you were a good fish, and are now an angelfish). the gravity in heaven is 2.718 s2, and you are no longer under water, so how much do you now weigh, in n?

Answer 1

Weight on heaven = mass * 2.178 = (42/9.8) * 2.718
