If 2.2 lbs = 1.0 kg, and Megan Progress weighs 130 lbs, what is her weight in newtons?
Answers
GPT 3.5
To convert Megan's weight from pounds to kilograms, we divide her weight in pounds by 2.2:
130 lbs / 2.2 = 59.09 kg
Now that we have Megan's weight in kilograms, we can convert it to newtons since weight is a force.
1 kg is equivalent to 9.81 newtons of force (because of gravity).
So, Megan's weight in newtons would be:
59.09 kg * 9.81 N/kg = 579.55 N
Therefore, Megan's weight is approximately 579.55 newtons.
130 lbs / 2.2 = 59.09 kg
Now that we have Megan's weight in kilograms, we can convert it to newtons since weight is a force.
1 kg is equivalent to 9.81 newtons of force (because of gravity).
