    1.84 * 10³ N

    Explanation:

    To determine the weight of the system, we will determine its mass which is equal to the sum of the masses of the plastic tank (8 kg) and the water.

    We have 0.18 m³ of water with a density of 1000 kg/m³. Its mass is:

    0.18 m³ * 1000 kg/m³ = 180 kg

    The mass of the system is 180 kg + 8 kg = 188 kg.

    We can find the weight (w) of the system using Newton's second law of motion.

    w = m * g = 188 kg * 9.81 m/s² = 1.84 * 10³ N

    where

    g is the gravity
