The weight of a body is 147 N. What is its mass? (Take the value of g as 10 ms⁻² ) Ans. (14.7 kg)


Given:  

Weight of the body = W = 20 N
Gravitational Acceleration = g = 10 m s⁻²


To Find:

Mass of the body = = ? 

Solution:  

The formula for weight is 
W = mg
or

m = `\frac{W}{g}`

by putting values

m = `\frac{147 N}{10 m s⁻²}`

m = 14.7 kg

So, the mass of the body is 14.7 kg
