Weight E = 10N
Weight M = 1/6 of Earth
= 1/6 × 10
5/3 N
Weight M = 1/6 of Earth
= 1/6 × 10

We know that the ratio of the weights of objects on Earth and Moon is 6:1
based on this, we can make the proportion:
6:1:10:x
Thus, we can make the equation- 6x= 10.
Simplifying the equation, we get- x is 10/6= (approx.) 10.67 Newton.
