Answer
Weight of the Jaden on earth is 490 N.
Weight of the Jaden on mars is 185 N.
Explanation:
Formula
w = mg
Where w is the weight of an object , m is the mass of an object and g is acceleration of gravity .
Case First
Gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s² .
Jaden’s mass is 50 kilograms.
g = 9.8 m /s²
m = 50
Put the values in the formula
Thus
w = 50 × 9.8
= 490 kg m /s²
(As N = kg m/ s²)
= 490 N
Therefore the weight of the Jaden on earth is 490 N.
Case Second
Gravity on Mars is 3.7 m/s².
Jaden’s mass is 50 kilograms.
m = 50 kg
g = 3.7 m/s²
Putting the values in the formula
w = 50 × 3.7
= 185 kg m/s²
(As N = kg m/ s²)
= 185 N
Therefore the weight of the Jaden on mars is 185 N.
