Question

Derivation for the 1/6 weight in the moon than in earth

Answer 1

The mass of moon is 1/100 times and its radius 1/4 times that of earth. As a result, the gravitational attraction on the moon is about one sixth when compared to earth. Hence, the weight of an object on the moon is 1/6th its weight on the earth.
