Calculate Weight On Pluto?

your mixing units. The joys of the non SI units, known as Imperial Units

weight = 300 lbs = 300 lbf (pounds force) this is what your scale tells you

the gravitation here is not 9.8 m/s^2, thats SI units. Use 32.2 ft/s^2

300/32.2 = 9.3 slugs (the non SI plain unit of mass)

9.3/.58 = 16lbf what your scale says on Pluto

Now about the .58 you have there...not sure what that is (assuming g on Pluto), and as such, I dont know how accurate my number is.

Weight On Pluto

The weight is 89.5 N, or 20.1 lbf (pound-foot).

Here's why...

300 pounds is a unit of mass, not weight. Weight is a force, measured in SI units of Newtons.

So let's put that in terms of kilograms, a proper SI unit. That's:

m = 136.0777 kg

Plus, your weight was never given as referenced to Earth (you used 9.8 m/s^2), even if 300 lbs had somehow been "weight." Moving on. Equatorial surface gravity of Pluto is given as 0.658 m/s^2

So you just use your normal

W = m * g

Substituting your proper mass (300 lb in terms of kilograms) and the correct gravity:

W = (136.0777 kg) * (0.658 m/s^2)

W = 89.5 N

This can NOT be turned into "pounds." The closest that you can do is pound-force (lbf), which in this case is 20.1 lbf.

RE:

Calculate Weight On Pluto?

Question says it. Assuming weight is 300lbs. I did mass = 300/9.8 = 30.6 then weight on pluto = 30.6/.58 = 52lbs. I think this is wrong though. It should be about 20lbs.

Food plays such an essential part in our lives, and but it’s one of our worst enemies as well. It requires nearly practically nothing for a healthful diet regime to turn into one that packs on the pounds or causes well being troubles! Alter this with Metabolic Cooking and make the meals a friend and not an enemy.

Weight loss shakes make great meals for people who are trying to shed some quick pounds. They are easily prepared, great tasting, healthy and leave you feeling good about yourself and your eating habits. Get more exciting recipes of weight loss shake here:

Include at minimum 10 to 15 grams involving protein, which suppresses ghrelin, any hormone that stimulates your urge for food. Include eggs, which are proven to control hunger.

Also include 10 grams associated with fiber to satiate hunger longer and prevent bloating from constipation.

Going low carb is proven to encourage weight loss. Limit the carbs (especially refined carbs like muffins and bagels) and include a little fat.
