Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.2P

Folklore has it that Sir Isaac Newton formulated the law of gravitation supposedly after being hit on the head by a falling apple. The weight of an apple depends strongly on its variety, but a typical weight is 1 newton! Calculate the total mass of 100 apples in kilograms. Then convert the total weight to pounds and the total mass to slugs.
