question 26
what is the weight of a 2,500 g bag of sand on the surface of the earth?
○ 9.80 n
○ 49.0 n
○ 2.50 n
○ 24.5 n

Explanation:

Step1: Convert mass to kg

Mass \( m = 2500\ g = \frac{2500}{1000}\ kg = 2.5\ kg \)

Step2: Use weight formula \( W = mg \)

Gravity \( g = 9.8\ m/s^2 \), so \( W = 2.5\ kg \times 9.8\ m/s^2 = 24.5\ N \)

Answer:

24.5 N
