Respuesta :

The mass of the space traveller on earth is calculated as 56.22 kg. The correct answer is 56.22 kg

What is force?

Force is termed  as the product of mass and acceleration. Terms like stretch and squeeze also can be used to denote force. In Physics, force is defined as: The push or pull on an object with mass causes it to vary its velocity. Force is an external agent capable of adjusting a body's state of rest or motion. it's a magnitude and a direction.

Given information;

A space traveler weighs herself on Earth at a location where the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 meters per second square.

And force applied on earth 551 N.

The value of mass can be determined by using the formula;

Force = Mass × Acceleration

Mass = [tex]\frac{Force}{Acceleration}[/tex]

Substitute all the values in the formula;

Mass = [tex]\frac{Force }{Acceleration }[/tex]

Mass = [tex]\frac{551}{9.81}[/tex]

Mass = 56.22 kg

Hence, the mass of the object is 56.22 kg
