The weight of the rock at the surface of Venus is 66.5 N

What is the weight of the rock at the surface of Venus ?

On earth,

The weight of the rock at the surface of earth = 75 N

The weight of an object on earth's surface is:

W = m g

Here, m = mass of rock

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

W= mg

m = [tex]\frac{W}{g}[/tex]

m = [tex]\frac{75}{10}[/tex]

m = 7.5 kg

On Venus,

mass (m) = 7.5 kg

acceleration due to gravity(g) = 8.87 m/s²

W= mg

  = 7.5 * 8.87

   =66.5 N

What is acceleration due to gravity?

  • The acceleration that an object experiences because of gravitational force is referred to as acceleration owing to gravity.
  • The SI equivalent is m/s².
  • It is a  vector quantity as it  has both magnitude and direction.
  • g stands for the acceleration brought on by gravity.
  • On Earth's surface, g has a standard value of 9.8  m/s² at sea level.
