A student uses a newtonmeter to measure the weight of some metal blocks. The gravitational field strength is 9.8 N/kg.
Write down the equation that links weight, mass and gravitational field strength.
One block has a mass of 2.0 kg. Calculate the weight of this block.
Give the unit of gravitational field strength.
The student takes the same block to a place where the gravitational field strength is larger. Give what happens to the mass of the block.
