Final Answer:
c. The mass will be lower than the weight
──────────────────────────────────────
Explanation:
Let’s go step by step.
First, look at the table. It tells you how to find weight if you know mass — just multiply mass by 10.
And to find mass if you know weight — divide weight by 10.
Example: Tea cup has mass = 2kg.
So weight = 2 × 10 = 20N.
Mass is 2, weight is 20 → mass is smaller.
Another example: Paper plate, mass = 0.5kg.
Weight = 0.5 × 10 = 5N.
Again, mass (0.5) is smaller than weight (5).
Now look at the laptop: weight = 300N.
So mass = 300 ÷ 10 = 30kg.
Wait — here mass (30) is bigger than weight (300)? No! 30 is smaller than 300.
Same with sports shoe: weight = 45N → mass = 45 ÷ 10 = 4.5kg.
4.5 is less than 45.
Electric kettle: mass = 18kg → weight = 18 × 10 = 180N.
18 is less than 180.
So in every case, mass is a smaller number than weight.
That means: “The mass will be lower than the weight” — that’s correct!
Also, mass and weight are linked — they always go together using ×10 or ÷10. So option d is wrong.
Option a says mass = weight — but 2kg ≠ 20N, so no.
Option b says mass > weight — but we saw mass is always smaller.
So only c makes sense.
You got this! 😊
