The object's weight is 68.00 kg. 2. The force exerted between the Earth and the object situated at sea level is 6671 N. 3. The Earth is not attracted by the object with a force 667.1 N. 4. The object's weight when placed on Earth at sea level is 667.1 N. 5. The object's mass is 68.00 kg. True False Statement 5 Statement 2 Statement 1 Statement 4 Statement 3 Prenius Check Answer Next Exit

Explanation / Answer

68 kg represents mass of any object, whereas weight is mass times gravitational acceleration.
Mass = 68 kg
Weight = Mass * g = 68 * 9.81 = 667.08 N (Newtons)
Statement 1 is False

This weight force is a force of attraction between both earth and object. Hence, the force exerted is equal to weight calculated above. Statement 2 is True

As mentioned above, the force of attraction acts on both earth as well as object. Statement 3 is False

Statement 4 and 5 as mentioned above in point 1 is true.
