Every morning and weigh yourself on your scales

Reference no: EM13656275

Assume you are a fish. You get up every morning and weigh yourself on your scales, and find you weight 0.42N. You, being a boxfish, are a box measuring 4.174 cm per side. You see a poor, hungry fisherman, and decide to be his dinner. You hook yourself, enjoy your last meal of worm, and then go to heaven. The gravity in heaven is 2.718 m/s^2, and you are no longer under water, so how much do you weigh now, in N?
