Mass of an object (m) on earth and moon = 10 kg
Weight of an object on earth (w) = m X g = 10 X 9.8 = 98 N
Weight of an object on Moon (w) = m X g X 1/6= 10 X 9.8 X 1/6 = 16.33 N
Weight of an object on earth (w) = m X g = 10 X 9.8 = 98 N
Weight of an object on Moon (w) = m X g X 1/6= 10 X 9.8 X 1/6 = 16.33 N

_/\_Hello mate__here is your answer--
Weight of an object on the moon
=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 10 kg object on the Earth
= 10 × 9.8 = 98 N
And,
weight of the same object on the moon
=1/6 × 98 = 16.3 N
I hope, this will help you.☺
Thank you______❤
