Question

An object weighs 10N when measured on the surface of the moon. What would be its weight when measured on the surface of the earth?

Answer 1

Answer

1.67N

Explanation

Acceleration due to gravity is (1/6)th times to that on earth.

So,

Weight in moon = Weight on earth/6

= 10/6 = 1.67 N

Answer 2

We know ,

Weight of object on the MOON = ( 1/6) * its weight on the EARTH.

That is ,

Weight on MOON = Weight on EARTH / 6

= 10 / 6 N

= 1.67 N

THUS , THE WEIGHT OF OBJECT ON THE SURFACE OF MOON WOULD BE 1.67N.
