Answer:

26m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the student  = 60kg

Weight  = 1560N

Unknown:

Acceleration due to gravity  = ?

Solution:

Weight is a force on a body due to gravity;

  Weight  = mass x gravity

   

Insert the given parameters and solve;

    1560  = 60 x gravity

    Gravity  = [tex]\frac{1560}{60}[/tex]   = 26m/s²
