Explain your answer ! : ) a meteor comes hurtling toward earth and lands near a lake. the meteor weighs 3,204 n. what is the mass of this meteor? a) 326.9 kg b) 31,399.2 kg c) 3.06 kg d) 3,204 kg

The formula for force is F=ma. Because weight is a measure of force, then we can substitute the weight of the meteor, 3204 N, for F in the the equation for force. We also know that the acceleration of gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s^2. To find the mass, simply divide both sides of the equation by the value of acceleration to get

Therefore, the value of the mass of the meteor is 326.9 kg.
