What is the weight on Earth of a person with a mass of 50 kilograms?

The weight of a person with a mass of 50 kilograms on Earth would be approximately 490 newtons. This is because weight is equal to mass multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity, which is around 9.8 m/s^2 on Earth.


What is a person's mass on earth if weight is 784 N?

Force = mass x accelerationf=masince on earth a=g =9.81 m/s²thereforef= 784 N = m x 9.81m = 784/9.81 = 79.918 kg


If a toy has a weight of 1kg what is its earth weight?

The weight of an object on Earth is the same as its mass, which is 1kg in this case. Weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object's mass.


How would your mass change if you went from the earth to the moon?

It wouldn't. Your weight would change, because it is equal to mass times acceleration, and the acceleration of gravity on the moon is about 1/6th that of Earth's, so you would weight about 1/6th as much on the moon as on the Earth. But mass is constant, regardless of where you are. Mass does increase with increased speed, however, according to Einstein's Theory of Relativity.


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.

What is the vertical force exerted by the mass of an object?

The vertical force exerted by the mass of an object is equal to its weight, which is given by the formula weight = mass x gravity.


An astrounaut has a mass of 200kg.what is the weight on earth and on the moon?

If you weighed 200kg on Earth you would weigh 33.2kg on the Moon. Your mass would stay the same.on earth the mass is equal to the weight.on the moon the weight will be inferior to the mass due to the smaller mass of the moon inducing less gravitational pull


When is your weight is equal to mg?

My mass is 83.91 kilograms, or 83,910,000 milligrams. My weight on earth is 822.32 newtons, or 186 pounds.


What is 1 n of force equal to?

On Earth, a mass of 102 grams has a weight of 1 newton.


What does 1 newton equal to the weight of an object that has?

one newton is equal to the weight of an object that has a mass of 100 g on Earth


If two objects weigh the same is their mass equal?

Yes, as long as they're both in the same place on the earth's surface, or the same place on the moon's surface. If they're both subject to the same gravitational acceleration, then equal masses have equal weights.


Is mass and weight equal in all places on earth?

Mass and weight, though closely related, are not the same thing. There are tiny, but detectable, fluctuations in the gravitational field of the earth. So an object of a given mass would not weigh the same if it was weighed at different places.


Is the moon more massive than the earth?

No. The earth's mass is equal to about 82 times the moon's mass. (Moon's mass is equal to about 1.2% of the earth's mass.)


What fraction of Mar's mass is equal to Earth's mass?

Mars would have to find more mass if it wanted to equal the Earth's. It has only 11% of Earth's mass.


What is the downward pull of a object due to gravity?

The strength of the force in each direction between the earth and any mass is called the "weight" of the mass. The force is equal in both directions, which means that the weight of the mass on earth is the same as the earth's weight on the mass. The force acts along the line between the center of the earth and the center of the mass. The direction toward the center of the earth is customarily referred to as the 'down' direction, and toward the center of the mass as the 'up' direction.
