The weight of the stone is 10N.

To find the weight of the stone, we need to know about the gravitational force on any object due to earth.

What is gravitational force?

  • Gravitational force is a attractive force that arises between any two objects.
  • The objects, on the earth surface or near the earth surface, experience the gravitational force of earth.
  • This gravitational force is Known as the weight of the object.

How can we calculate the gravitational force or the weight of an object, when it's near the earth surface?

When an object is near the earth surface, its weight is mass × gravitational acceleration (g).

So, the weight of the stone= 1kg × 10 m/s²

                            = 10 N

Thus, we can conclude that the weight of the stone 100 m above a gorge is 10N.
