Answer: An object has 90kg as its mass. Calculating the weight is W=M*gravity. 90 * 9.8=882N.

That is the weight on Earth.

Explanation: the mass on Earth is the same as mass on the Moon. Mass doesn't change. To calculate the weight on Moon. 882/9.8*1.622 = 145.98N. it simply means that to calculate weight on the moon, the formula is weight on Earth/9.8 multiply by 1.622 . Because the weight of an object in moon is 1/6th that on earth

Weight of Earth is 882 N

Weight on Moon is 150.3 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of an object, m = 90 kg

The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is 9.8\ m/s^2. Weight of an object is given by :

W = mg

W=90\times 9.8=882\ N

Mass of the moon remains same always. Its mass on Moon will remain 90 kg. We know that the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth is 1.64\ m/s^2. Its weight on moon is :

W'=90\times 1.67=150.3\ N
