Mass of an object is 10 kg. What is its weight on the earth? An object
weighs 10 N when measured on the surface of the earth. What would be
its weight when measured on the surface of the moon?
Answers
MASS IS GIVEN AS 10 kg
therefore...,
weight = 10kg * 9.8m/s^2
= 98kg. m/s^2
answer of the 2nd ques is in the picture ...,
follow me I'll follow u back
give thnx , take thnx
mark me as brainiest I'll give u 10thnx
Answer:
i) Weight of object on earth = 98 N
ii) Weight on surface of moon = 1.67 N
Explanation:
Given,
Mass of an object is 10 Kg. (m)
To find: i) Its weight of Earth? ii) It's weight on surface of moon.
Concept Involved: i) Weight is the product of mass times acceleration due to gravity.
ii) Weight of object on moon = 1/6* weight of object on earth
Solution:
Here,
Acceleration due to gravity(g) = 9.8 m/s^2
Then, Weight = mass * acceleration due to gravity,
or, W = mg = 10 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 = 98 N
Therefore, Weight of object = 98 N
ii)Weight of object on moon = 1/6* weight of object on earth
= 10 / 6 N = 1.67 N
