Hi there!

According to Newton's second law:

∑F = m · a, where:

∑F = net force (N = kgm/s²)

m = mass (kg)

a = acceleration (m/s²)

Rearrange to solve for acceleration:

F/m = a

20N / 4.0kg = 5 m/s²

If a person weighs 818 N on earth and 5320 N on the surface of a nearby planet, what is the acceleration due to gravity on that

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

$g'=63.74\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Weight of the person on Earth, W = 818 N

Weight of a person is given by the following formula as :

$W=mg$

g is the acceleration due to gravity on earth

$m=\dfrac{W}{g}$

$m=\dfrac{818\ N}{9.8\ m/s^2}$

m = 83.46 kg

The mass of an object is same everywhere. It does not depend on the location.

Let W' is the weight of the person on the surface of a nearby planet, W' = 5320 N

g' is the acceleration due to gravity on that planet. So,

$g'=\dfrac{W'}{m}$

$g'=\dfrac{5320\ N}{83.46\ kg}$

$g'=63.74\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration due to gravity on that planet is $63.74\ m/s^2$ . Hence, this is the required solution.
