Question

(a) An object weight 10 N when measured on the surface of the Earth. What would be its weight when measured on the face of the moon?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

we need to multiply by 1/6 so 10×1/6 gives 5/3 or 1.67

Answer 2

Explanation:

Weight = mg

10 = m ×10

Mass = 1 kg

Mass of a body remains constant.

On moon, the gravity is one-sixth of the earth's gravity

So g on moon = g on earth /6

Weight on moon = 1/6 kg
