Answer

The mass of the particle at a point where $g = 4.9~m/s^2$ is $~~2.24~kg$

Work Step by Step

We can find the mass of the particle: $mg = 22~N$ $m = \frac{22~N}{9.8~m/s^2}$ $m = 2.24~kg$ Note that the mass does not depend on the value of $g$ Therefore, the mass of the particle at a point where $g = 4.9~m/s^2$ is $~~2.24~kg$
