Answer

266.4

Explain

Weight on any planet can be calculated by multiplying the mass of the object with the gravitational field strength of that planet. This relationship can be represented by the formula W = m * g. Here W represents the weight, m represents the mass of the object and g represents the gravitational field strength. <br /><br />Given that <br /> the gravitational field strength on Mars ( g) is 3.7 N/kg, <br /> Pedro's mass (m) is 72 kg,<br /><br />we can now substitute these values into the formula like so: W= m*g = 72 kg * 3.7 N/kg.<br /><br />After simplifying by multiplying, we get the weight as 266.4N. But the question asks to give an answer in 1 decimal place, thus we round the value and get it as 266.4N approximately makes 266.4N.
