Question

1. what is the mass, in kilograms, of a large dog that weighs 441 newtons?

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the formula for weight

Weight \( W = mg\), where \( W\) is weight (in newtons), \( m\) is mass (in kilograms), and \( g\) is the acceleration due to gravity (\(g = 9.8\space m/s^{2}\)).

Step2: Solve for mass \(m\)

Rearrange the formula to \(m=\frac{W}{g}\). Substitute \(W = 441\space N\) and \(g = 9.8\space m/s^{2}\) into the formula: \(m=\frac{441}{9.8}\).

Step3: Calculate the value of \(m\)

\(m=\frac{441}{9.8}= 45\)

Answer:

\(45\)
