Question

obtain a relation between the weight of an object on the surface of the earth and that on the moon.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Weight of an Object on the Surface of Moon

Since, mass of the moon is less than that of earth, therefore, moon will exert less force of attraction on any object; in comparison to the earth. Acceleration due to gravity on moon is 'gm'. Or, Weight of an object on the moon = 1/6th of the weight of the object on earth.
