Answer:

57908 N

Explanation:

Let's first convert Dumbo's mass into kg using the given relationship: 2.2 pounds =1 kg.

Then, 13000 lbs = 13000/2.2 kg = 5909 kg

Now, let's find the force of gravity on Dumbo at the surface of the earth, which would be in magnitude equal to the normal force that the Earth's surface applies on Dumbo.

F = m * a = 5909 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 = 57908 N
