* Acceleration due to gravity: This is a constant value, approximately 9.8 m/s² near the Earth's surface. It represents the rate at which objects accelerate towards the Earth because of gravity.
* Weight: This is the force exerted on an object due to gravity. It's calculated by multiplying the object's mass by the acceleration due to gravity (W = m * g).
So, the question can't be answered directly as stated. Here's why:
* Acceleration isn't weight: Acceleration is a change in velocity over time, while weight is a force.
* You need mass to find weight: To calculate an object's weight, you need to know its mass *in addition* to the acceleration due to gravity.
To find the weight of an object, you need to know its mass:
1. Mass (m): This is the amount of matter in an object, measured in kilograms (kg).
2. Acceleration due to gravity (g): This is approximately 9.8 m/s².
3. Weight (W) = m * g
Example:
If an object has a mass of 10 kg, its weight would be:
* W = 10 kg * 9.8 m/s² = 98 Newtons (N)
