We know, that the moon is not as big as the earth and neither equal in mass, So the acceleration due to gravity of moon is 1/6 th of the acceleration due to gravity of the earth.
So,
g of the moon = 1/6 × g of the earth
We know,
Weight = mass × g
60 = mass × 10 ( take , g = 10 m/s² )
mass = 60/10
mass = 6 Kg
==> Weight on moon = 1/6 × g × mass
==> Weight on moon = 1/6 × 6 × 10
==> Weight on Moon = 10 N
Hence, Weight on moon's surface will be 10 N

Answer:
10 Newton
Explanation:
Weight on moon = 1/6 times the weight on earth
=> 1/6 x 60
=> 60/6
=> 10 Newton
