Question

Many people consider mass and weightas one and the same physical quantity though these are not the same. The quantity of matter in an object
makes its mass. Its value remains the same to which ever place on earth or even to a different heavenly body it is taken. It is also the measure of
another property of a body called inertia. More is the mass of a body, greater is its inertia. Inertia is actually the property or tendency of the body
due to which it continuous to be in its own state of rest or of uniform motion until an external force changes this state.
On the other hand, weight of a body is the measure of force experienced by it due to the force of gravity. Its precise value varies when the body is
taken from one place on earth to another or to a different heavenly body. This happens due to change in the force of gravity at different places.
The force of gravity may increase or decrease depending upon the location of the new place. Otherwise, weight and mass are directly
proportional to each other. Greater is the mass of a body, greater is its weight. While mass is measured in kilogram(kg), weight is in
Newton(N) An object of mass 1 kg on earth weighs 9.8 N and another object of mass 2 kg weighs 19.6 N. Weight of any other object varies exactly
by the same factor. Also weight of an object on Moon is 1/6 of its weight on earth.
Question:4) Weight of a body of mass 10 kg on Earth and on Moon are
A)10 N and 1.67 N
B) 98 N and 16.33 N
C) 16.33 N and 10 N
D)10 N and 10 N​
