The magnitude of that force is printed on the front of every bag of sugar.
Look at it carefully, and you'll find markings like "1 lb" or "5 lb" or "10 lb".
That's code for the gravitational force exerted on that bag when it's full.
Unless your family prefers metric sugar. Then it gets a little more complicated,
because they use mass instead of weight (which is a type of force). To get
the force, multiply the mass printed on the bag in kg by about 9.8 m/s/s.
The answer will be in newtons, which unlike grams and kilograms are
force units.

What is the weight of a 1kg bag of sugar on earth?
Fg=mg therefore Fg=(1.0kg)x(9.81m/s^2) Fg=9.81N
What is the weight of a 2.50 kg bag of sand on the surface of the earth?
You multiply the kg mass x 9.8 ( acceleration of gravity in meters/second) to get N.2.50 x 9.8 = 24.5 N
What happens to temperature and pressure as you move from the surface of the earth towards the center?
The pressure increases. I actually did this last summer. We were traveling from sea level to the mountains in North Carolina. I had a bag of potato chips in the car. When we left the beach (sea level) the bag was a little puffy. When we looked at the bag at the top of Mount Mitchell it was swollen up so tight as if you had put an air hose in it. That was because the air pressure at sea level is greater than it is at higher altitudes. The pressure in the bag stayed the same but the air pressure outside of the bag became less making the bag puff up. If you go down into the earth the pressure in the chip bag will stay the same but the outside pressure will be greater crushing the bag and if you go far enough down it will probably mash your chips. This may not be the best description but it works for me.
What bag is the strongest biodegradble bags or a polythene bag?
I believe biodegradable bags are the strongest because they are made to withstand pressure, weather changes, or just about any force. The strength and quality of these bags are made to last a lifetime.
What is a porous bag?
A porous bag is a bag that has small holes in it, allowing the powders or leaves or whatever is inside it to come out. A tea bag is a porous bag.
Why does a 1 kilogram bag of sugar stretch a spring more than an orange?
That is because the 1 KG (Kilogram) bag of sugar weighs more than the orange. Therefore it's taking gravity more force to support the bag of sugar than the orange.
Is there gravity between earth and the space shuttle as it orbits earth?
Yes, there is the force of gravity when the Space Shuttle is in space. The Earth's gravity is a force which continues throughout space, however diminishing as it travels further out (similar to the suns light traveling throughout space). A good example of the gravity's force in space would be the tool bag lost on a spacewalk which fell back to Earth. Also, the gravity in space seems much less due to the fact there is very little to no atmosphere weighing on the space craft (depending on altitude). On Earth atmosphere at sea level ways 14.7 pounds per square inch and gets lighter as you climb.
If a bag of sugar on Earth has a mass of 1 kilogram how much mass will a bag of sugar have on the Moon?
the mass of an object is the same, no matter where it is.
How would the weight of the same bag of sugar on Mars and Jupiter differ from that on earth?
It is the same
What weighs the same as a 1kg bag of sugar?
Any other object with a mass of 1 kg that is weighed in the same locality. (The earth's gravity varies from place to place). Or ten objects, each with a mass of 100 grams, etc.
What weights more a bag of wet sugar or a bag of dry sugar?
dry sugar
How is the mass of an object related to the object acceleration?
As you make an object move (accelerate it) you are applying a force to it. Say that force was a sweep of your hand and there were two different sized bags of sugar. Taking the small bag first, as your hand hits it, it pushes the bag forwards a certain distance. The taking the second, larger bag and pushing that with the same force, the distance you will move it is less than for the smaller bag. The reason for the difference is that the larger bag contains more mass (more sugar) than the smaller bag. What doing this shows you is that it takes energy/force to move something and the more massive that something is, the more the force you need to apply. A famous British scientist called newton worked this all out and his equation to explain it is: Acceleration= Force/Mass
What is the mass of 10kg?
98 Newtons.
Is the weight of a 1 kg bag of flour greater on the moon?
No, it would be considerably less because the force of gravity doesn't pull as hard on it.
Is the tool bag that the international space station lost in orbit?
yes it is in orbit the gravity of the earth is treating it like another sattilite
How much air resistance acts on a 100 n bag of nails at its terminal speed?
The acceleration is 0. That also means that the net force is 0N since the gravity Force is 100N down and the bag of nails is 100N, the air resistance must be 100N up to balance it out and create the net force of 0N
What is the mass of the 7lbs bag of sugar in kilograms on earth?
3 kg approx. to be more specific 1lbs =425 gms
