Question
The weights of two bodies are 2.0 N and 2.0 kgf respectively what is the mass of each body?
Solution
For Ist body :
Let W1 = 2.0 N.
Then W1 = m1g
Substituting the values, we get
2 = m1 × 10
⇒ m1 = `2/10` = 0.2 kg
For IInd body :
Let W2 = 2.0 kgf.
Then W2 = m2g
Substituting the values, we get
2 × 10 = m2 × 10
⇒ m2 = 2 kg.
