given mass of the object m=50Kg
so weight of the object on earth W=mg (g=acceleration due to gravity and its value is approximately equal to 10m/s²)
so weight W=50*10
W=500N
weight of an object on moon is 1/6th that of the earth because gravity is 1/6 the of earths gravity.
W'=500/6 83.33
W/W'=500/83.33
so weight of the object on earth W=mg (g=acceleration due to gravity and its value is approximately equal to 10m/s²)
so weight W=50*10
W=500N
weight of an object on moon is 1/6th that of the earth because gravity is 1/6 the of earths gravity.
W'=500/6 83.33
W/W'=500/83.33

Answer:cceleration due to gravity on the moon is 1/6 times as that on the earth and we know that mass is property of the material it always remains same and weight is measure of gravitational force, hence
mass of object on moon is 60kg and weight =60g/6=10×10=100N
