Question

Calculate the weight of an astronaut of mass80 kg on the surface of the earth and on the surface of the moon . Also claculate the ratio of mass of astronaut on the surface of the earth and on the surface of the moon

Answer 1

The Moon's gravity is much less than the Earth's gravity - approximately one sixth.

weight = mass x force

So weight of the body on earth will be (80*10)= 800 N (approx)

But weight of the body on moon will (80*10)/6= 133.33 N (approx)

Mass of the body will be same as 80 kg where- ever it is.(on earth as well as on moon..)

so the ratio will be 1:1

Answer 2

Answer:

1:1

Explanation:

because mass remain same on moon only we feel it light due to absence of gravity aunty.

hope!!!! This will help you
