Question

If the weight of a body on earth is 50kg then what will be the weight of that body on moon?

Answer 1

the weight of any person on the moon is 1/6 thaton earth... so the answer is 1/6×50=8. 3

Answer 2

Hi friend !!

Here's the answer !!

We know that,

Weight = Mass × Gravity

Hence we must know the gravity of moon to find our weight on moon.

We know that,

Mass = Weight / Gravity

=> Mass = 50 / 9.8 m / s² = 5.1 Kg

We also know that,

Gravity in moon = 1.62 m / s²

Hence Weight in moon is,

Weight = 1.62 × 5.1 = 8.262 Kg

Hence the weight will be 8.262 kg in moon for that person who has a weight of 50 kg in Earth.

Hope my answer helped !!

Have a good day !!
