Answer :-
→ Mass of the object on moon = 30 kg
→ Weight on moon = 50 N
Explanation :-
We have :-
• Mass on Earth (mₑ) = x units
• Weight on Earth (Wₑ) = 300 N
• Gravity on earth (gₑ) = 10 m/s²
________________________________
Firstly, let's calculate mass of the given object on Earth .
Wₑ = mₑ × gₑ
⇒ 300 = x(10)
⇒ 300 = 10x
⇒ x = 300/10
⇒ x = 30 kg
As we know that mass of an object remains constant everywhere irrespective of place, so mass of the object on surface of moon is 30 kg .
Now, weight of the object on moon will be :-
Wₘ = Wₑ/6
⇒ Wₘ = 300/6
⇒ Wₘ = 50 N

CONCEPT :
- here first we have formula then, we will multiply
- x unit with 10 so we have 10x then, we will
- divide 300 with 10 we get 30 kilograms then
- we will find the weight then, we will divide 300
- with 6 we get 50
QUESTION :
- An object of mass x units weighs 300N on the surface of earth.what would be its mass and weight on the surface of moon.(earth = 10m/s2)
GIVEN :
- MASS WE HAVE = x
- WEIGHT WE HAVE = 300 N
- GRAVITY WE HAVE = 10 m/s
TO FIND :
- what would be its mass and weight on the surface of moon = ?
SOLUTION :
first we have :
w = m × g
- mass = x × 10
- mass = 10 x
- mass = 300/10
mass = 30 kilograms
then, we have to find weight :
- weight we have = weight/6
- weight we have = 300/6
weight we have got = 50
.
so, mass we have = 30 kilograms
weight we have = 50
