if an elephant has a mass of 2,000 kg, what is its weight on Earth? (1 point) A. 0.0049 N B. 204 N C. 19,600 N D. 43,100 N

Respuesta :

the gravity of earth is 9.8.so to find the weight:
[tex]2000 \times 9.8 = 19600[/tex]
C is true
19,600N

Answer:

Option C is correct, 19,600N

Explanation:

  • An elephant has a mass of 2000kg, m=2000kg
  • Gravitational acceleration, g=9.8
  • weight ?
  • thus applying formula; W=mg
  • putting values, W=2000×9.8=19600N

What is gravitational acceleration?

Gravitational acceleration (symbolized g) is a physics term that denotes the strength of a gravitational field. It's measured in meters per second squared ([tex]m/s^{2}[/tex]). 1 g is approximately 9.8 [tex]m/s^{2}[/tex] at the earth's surface.

hence, Option C is correct, 19,600N
