Weight of the body on Earth = 90 kg
Therefore, mass of the body (m) = 90 kg
Mass on Mars = 1/9 m
Radius = ½ of that of Earth
Therefore, F = mg = m [G M/Re2]
F Mars/F Earth = m [G M/Re2] Mars/ m [G M/Re2] Earth
F Mars/90 kg = (M earth/9)/ (M earth) x (R Earth)e2/ (R Earth/2)e2 = 4/9
F Mars = 90 x 4/9 = 40 kg
Therefore, mass of the body on Mars is 40 kg.

The body weight is 90kg
so,the mass is 90kg
Mass of mars =1/9
Radius =1/2 of earth
F=mg=m(G M/Re 2)
F mars /F earth = m (G M / R e 2)mars/m (G M/R e 2)earth
F mars/90 kg =(M earth/9)/m earth *(r earth)e 2/{r earth /2}e 2
=4/9
=90*4/9
=>mass of mars =40kg
