In 6 secs, the dog covers-
S=vt
8.9*6 = 53.4 m.
In the same time, the cat covers, 53.4-3.8 = 49.6 m.
Thus, speed of the cat, v= s/t, 
= 49.6/6 = 8.267 m/s

Find your mass if a scale on earth reads 650 N when you stand on it.
dezoksy [38]

Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity) .

On Earth, acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s² (rounded) .

                                                    650 N                 = (mass) x (9.8 m/s²)

Divide each side by (9.8 m/s²):    650 N / 9.8 m/s² = mass

                                                     Mass = 66.3 kilograms (rounded)
