Problem

A spring balance shows a reading of 200 N200\,\text{N} when a block is suspended from it on the Earth’s surface. (i) Determine the mass of the block. (ii) Find the reading of the same balance if the block is taken to a planet where the acceleration due to gravity is 25 m s−225\,\text{m s}^{-2}.
