Answer:
W=223 N
Explanation:
To know the weight of a person,an animal or an object we have the equation:
W=mg
Where:
W: Weight of the person, animal or object.
m: Mass of the person, animal or object.
g: Acceleration of gravity.
In this case we know the mass of the dog m=20.0kg, then in order to find the Weight we need to know g, the acceleration of gravity, in case of the Earth [tex]g=9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} }[/tex], but on Neptune g has another value.
[tex]g_{n} =11.15\frac{m}{s^{2} }[/tex], where [tex]g_{n}[/tex] is the acceleration of gravity on Neptune.
Now, replacing the data:
[tex]W=mg\\ W=20.0kg(11.15\frac{m}{s^{2} } )\\ W=223.0 kg\frac{m}{s^{2} } \\ W=223.0 N[/tex]
