To calculate the weight of an object on Mars, you can use the formula:
\[
\text{Weight} = \text{mass} \times \text{gravity}
\]
Given:
- Mass of the object (m) = 50 kg
- Gravity on Mars (g) = 3.71 m/s²
Now, substituting the values into the formula:
\[
\text{Weight} = 50 \, \text{kg} \times 3.71 \, \text{m/s}^2
\]
\[
\text{Weight} = 185.5 \, \text{N}
\]
Therefore, the weight of the object on Mars is **185.5 Newtons**.
