Question

Mass of a body is 10 kg on the earth's surface. Find its mass and weight at Moon's surface.​

Answer 1

Answer:

10/6 Kg

Explanation:

We know for a fact that force of gravity on the moon is 1/6 of the gravitational force on earth. So the value of mass m on Earth is m/6 on the moon

Answer 2

Answer:

Mass of a body doesn't depend on g ,that is acceleration due to gravity. Therefore mass will be 10 kg i.e. same as the mass on earth

And the value of acceleration due to gravity is 1/6 of that of earth

Therefore, value of g on moon =9.8x1/6=1.63 m/s2

Weight =mg

=10x1.63=16.3 Newton

mass =10kg weight=16.3 Newton
