On planet X, an object weighs 8.59 N. On planet B where the magnitude of the free-fall acceleration is 1.28 g (where g = 9.8 m/s 2 is the gravitational acceleration on Earth), the object weighs 18.69 N. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . What is the mass of the object be on Earth? Answer in units of kg.

14.6kg

Explanation:

Mass is an extensive property of matter that depends on the amount of matter that is present.

Weight is the force applied by gravity on a body.

                 Weight  = mg

 m is the mass of the body

  g is the acceleration due to gravity

Given;

Weight on planet B = 18.69N

Acceleration due to gravity on B = 1.28m/s²

 So, let us find the mass from this value;

           18.69  = mass x 1.28

           mass  = 14.6kg

The mass of the body on earth is  14.6kg

i just did an experiment like this in my science class. also the answer is yes, it will get separated because they are two opposites meaning if they are opposite they can not attract.

hope this .!
