To calculate the weight of something you must multiply it's mass by the strength of the gravitational pull it experiences.
So on earth this pull g, is 9.81ms-2 so
1kg weighs 1 x 9.81 = 9.81N
N stands for newtons which is a unit of force as weight is a force.
No. On Earth, each kilogram weighs about 9.8 newtons. On the Moon, the weight of each kilogram is about 1/6 of what it is on Earth.
The weight of 1 kilogram of iron on Earth is greater than the weight of 1 kilogram of iron on the Moon. This is because weight depends on the gravitational pull of the celestial body, and Earth has a stronger gravitational force than the Moon.
A kilogram (mass) on the moon is still a kilogram (mass)A kilogram (referred to as its weight) is about 1/6 of it's Earth weight or 160 g (approx)Aside: In common usage we talk about an object having a weight, not a mass (e.g. Your driver's license states your weight). In science a kilogram is a unit of mass. Weight is what we perceive when we try to lift that mass - it is the force of gravity pulling the kilogram mass to the Earth. It gets a bit confusing when you are at Earth's surface because a the kilogram mass has a numerically kilogram of force (usually referred to as weight) attracting it downwards.
Weight = mass x gravity. On Earth, gravity is approximately 9.8 meters/second2, which is the same as 9.8 newton/kilogram. That is, every kilogram has a weight of approximately 9.8 newton.
Near the surface of the Earth, every kilogram has a weight of 9.8 Newton. (Weight is a type of force.)
A kilogram is a unit of mass, not weight. In Earth's standard gravity, a kilogram mass weighs about 9.8 Newtons.
20*9.81=196.2N
98.07 newtons.
On Earth, a kilogram of any substance will always weight 9.8 newtons, no matter what material it is made of.
1 pound is the weight of 0.45359237 kilogram of mass on earth. 1 kilogram of mass weighs 2.205 pounds on earth, and has other weights in other places.
On earth, 1 kilogram of mass weighs 9.8 newtons.
The mass is 1 kilogram anywhere. The mass doesn't change.The weight of 1 kilogram is 9.8 newtons (2.205 pounds) on earth,and 1.6 newtons (5.8 ounces) on the moon.
