Question #3df20
1 Answer
See below.
Explanation:
The weight of a stationary object near the surface of the earth is equal the product of the mass of the object and the gravitational (free-fall) acceleration constant,
W=vecF_g=mg Where
W is the weight.
Weight is a force and can be given in newtons, where a newton is equivalent to one kilogram meter per square second:
1 N= (1kgm)/s^2
If using newtons, the mass of the object should be in kilograms. The gravitational acceleration constant,
W=mg=kg*(m/s^2)
=>(kgm)/s^2
So, you should get units of newtons,
