An object has a mass of 145 lbm. This object is sent into space, and is placed onto the surface of a planet where the acceleration due to gravity is 25 ft/s2. What is the weight of the object in lbf on the other planet?
Given: m = 145 lbm; gp =25 ft/s2
Wp = mgp/gc = (145 lbm)(25 ft/s2)/ (32.174 lbm-ft/lbf-s2) = 113 lbf
