On Earth a package weighs 19.6 newtons. What is the mass of this package on Earth? Imagine you could mail this package to Neptune. What would the mass of the package be on Neptune?

a)1.999 kg

b)2.272 kg

Explanation:

The first question requires you to convert Newton's to kilograms

1 N = 0.10197 kg

19.6 N= 19.6*0.10197 =1.999 kg

The second question requires you to converts mass of an object on Earth to mass of the object on Neptune.

The formula to apply is;

Weight of an object on Neptune = (Weight of the object on Earth/9.81 m/s²)*11.15 m/s²

Weight of package on Earth= 1.999 kg

Mass of package on Neptune= (1.999/9.81)*11.15 =2.272 kg
