Question

If the mass of your roommate is 150 lbm, what is his or her weight (lbf)?

Answer 1

4830 lbf

Explanation:

mass of the roommate = 150 lbm

here lbm means pound

hence the mass of the roommate = 150 pounds

we know that lbf = lbm×32.2 ( value of g in British unit 32.2 ft/s^2)

lbf= 150×32.2= 4830 lbf

hence the weight of the roommate = 4830 lbf
