The heaviest invertebrate is the giant squid, which is estimated to have a weight of about 2 tons spread out over its length of 70 feet. What is its weight in newtons

Respuesta :

Answer:

Weight = 17780.82 N

Explanation:

The weight of the heaviest invertebrate = 2 tons

It is spread out over its length of 70 feet.

We need to find its weight in newtons.

We know that,

1 ton = 907.185 kg

2 ton  = 1814.37 kg

Weight of a body is given by :

W = mg

Where

g is the acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

So,

W = 1814.37 kg × 9.8 m/s²

W = 17780.82 N

Hence, the weight of heaviest invertebrate is 17780.82 N.

The weight will be "19600 Newtons".

Given values:

Length,

  • L = 70 feet

Mass,

  • m = 2 tons

            = 2 × 1000

            = 2000 kg

As we know,

→ [tex]W = mg[/tex]

By substituting the values, we get

       [tex]= 2000\times 9.8[/tex]

       [tex]= 19600 \ N[/tex]

Thus the response above is appropriate.
