Answer:Mass of the object is constant. it will be the same on moon. Weight of the object depends on gravity.
W = M X g ; On earth g = 9.8 so if the object weighs 20N, its mass would be
40N = M x 9.8
or M = 40 /9.8 ~4.08kg
Now gravity on Moon g = 1.622, therefore the weight of the same object on Moon would be
W (on moon) = 4.08 x 1.622 = 6.61776N.
