![**Problem 4.3 - Part C**
**Question:**
What is the weight of a 69-kg astronaut on Mars (where the acceleration due to gravity, \( g = 3.7 \, \mathrm{m/s^2} \))?
**Instructions:**
Express your answer using two significant figures.
**Calculation Box:**
\( w = \) [Insert answer here] N
**Buttons:**

---
**Note:**
The solution involves using the formula for weight: \( w = m \times g \).
Where:
- \( m \) is the mass of the astronaut (69 kg)
- \( g \) is the acceleration due to gravity on Mars (\(3.7 \, \mathrm{m/s^2}\))
Input your answer in the calculation box and ensure it follows the significant figures guideline.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F4b7bd9c7-ce02-4726-b1b4-7d4fb12a0ea9%2Fe267ada5-c99d-4b40-a72a-88f48602c87f%2Fh0y94lf_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
