If the acceleration due to gravity on Mars is 3.8m/s2 then what would be the weight of an object on mars which has a mass of 10 kg on the earth. Also find the weight of the object on earth.
From the above data, analyse what will be the percentage difference of your weight on earth and on mars.

Explanation:
given mass = 10kg
acceleration due to gravity on Mars = 3.8m/s²
weight on Mars = mg
= 10×3.8 N
= 38N
we know, g on earth = 9.8m/s² (approx)
therefore, the weight of the same mass on earth = mass (m) × g ( acceleration due to gravity)
= 10×9.8 N
= 98 N
percentage of increase in weight on earth =
= (increase in weight / initial weight ) × 100
= [(98-38)/38] × 100
= 60/38 × 100
= 1.578 × 100
= 157.8 % or 158% ( approx )
hope it helped
