Question

gravitational force on the surface of the moon is only one sixth as strong as gravitational force on the earth what is the weight in Newtons of 60 kg object on the moon and on the Earth takes g equal to 10 metre per second square

Answer 1

Mass of object = 60 kg

Gravity of earth, g = 10 m/s^2

Weight on earth = mg = 60×10 = 600N


Gravitational force on the surface of the moon is only one sixth as strong as gravitational force on the earth
So gravity on moon, g' = 10/6 m/s^2

Weight on moon = mg' = 60 × 10/6 = 100N


Weight of object on moon is 100 N and on earth is 600 N

Answer 2

_/\_Hello mate__here is your answer--

Weight of an object on the moon

=$\frac{1}{6}$ × Weight of an object on the Earth

Also,

Weight = Mass × Acceleration

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2

Therefore, weight of a 60 kg object on the Earth

= 60 × 9.8 = 584 N

And,

weight of the same object on the moon

=$\frac{1}{6}$ × 584 = 98 N

I hope, this will help you.☺

Thank you______❤
