Question

Gravitational force on the surface of the moon is only
1 6
as
strong as gravitational force on the earth. What is the weight in newtons of a 10 kg object on the moon and on the earth?

Answer 1

good afternoon .........

Answer 2

Answer:

16N

Explanation:

Mass = 10kg  Weight on earth = mg=10×9.8 =98N  Weight on moon = 98×(1/6) = 16N

or

Mass of the object = 10 kg Weight of the object on earth = W = m × g ∴ W = 10 × 9.8 W = 98 N Weight of the object on moon = th the weight on the earth. As the gravitational force on the surface of the moon is only th as strong as gravitational force on the surface of the earth. ∴ Weight of the object on moon Weight on earth = 98 N Weight on moon = 16.3 N
