I think you may be slightly confused between mass and weight.

A woman with a mass of 50 kg would weigh 490.5 Nm on the earth's surface.

A woman who weighs 50 kg on the earth's surface would have a mass of 50 kg. The use of mass to define weight is an old problem dating back to before Isaac newton. A pound is mass, a Kg is mass, both are commonly referred as weight, no one wants to weigh 3548.4 poundals after all, that's 110 pounds.

The formula: W = mg , where W is weight, m is mass and g is gravity

(gravity is 9.81 m/s2 on earth)

weight is a force created by the acceleration of gravity acting on a mass. The confusion arises when Kg is used for both mass and weight. Nm or Newton.meters is the metric equivalent to the English measure of poundals. A poundal equals 1/32.2 pounds just as a Nm equals 1/9.81 Kg.{but only on the Earth at sea level}. The acceleration of gravity decreases as your center of gravity moves away from the center of gravity of the Earth.

Weight on the moon is approx one sixth of that on earth so 50kg/6 is 8.3Kg :)


If a woman has a mass of 50kg calculate her weight in newtons?

equation: weight= mass*gravity weight = 50kg * 9.8 m/s or 10 m/s (samething) =500 newtons or 490 newtons ~hope that helped!

What will a 50kgs on earth weigh in zero gravity?

If you had a 50kg weight on Earth, it would weigh ~zero on the space station. It would still have a mass of 50kg--meaning it would difficult to move, and hurt very bad if it wumped you on the head, but placed on a scale, it would show 0. Likewise, if you had that 50kg weight and a scale on an elevator here on Earth, the scale would read 50kg. Say at the top of a 100 floor building, the elevator's cable and safety devices broke and the elevator, you, the 50kg weight and the scale were all in free fall. For a very short time, the 50kg weight would weigh zero. You would weigh zero. The scale would weigh zero. Until the elevator hit the ground.


Woman has a mass of 50kg.calculate her weight in newtons?

Weight = mass x gravity Weight = 50Kg x 9,8 m/s^2 = 490.0 Newtons


If you weigh 50 kg on earth what is your mass on the moon?

The same as it is on the Earth. Mass does not change, weight does.If you weighed 50kg on Earth you would weigh about 8.3kg on the Moon.


Would your weight change if you went on the moon?

Good question. Yes, your weight would change, but your mass would not. People often confuse weight with mass.If your mass is 50kg, then your weight on Earth is 500N - weight is a force, and it is equal to mass x acceleration due to gravity.Because the force of gravity on the moon is much less, about 1/6 of that on Earth, your weight would be about 80N. Your mass, however, would still be 50kg.
