Question

solve the problem with explanation​

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes, it is correct that the mass of a body on the moon is equal to the mass of a body on the earth because mass is the measure of matter contained in a body. Mass is a constant quantity and its magnitude remains unaffected with respect to surroundings of body. Mass is measured by physical balance. Mass is measured in grams and kilograms. Mass is a scalar quantity.

Therefore, X = Y

If the mass of a body on the moon is X and that on the earth is Y,

X = Y because mass is constant.

Yes, it is wrong that the weight of the body on the moon is not equal to the weight of a body on the earth.

This is because of some reason is:

As we know that,

Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity

So, here acceleration due to gravity is multiplied with mass to get weight of the body. That means, on every planets, the weight of the body remains change or vary according to its sizes and mass which means weight depends on the acceleration due to gravity.

If we have to know about it's weight

X ≠ Y

but, X = 6Y

Because the weight of the body on the moon is 1/6 th of the weight of the earth.

Answer 2

$\huge\underline\blue{\sf Answer:}$

$\large\underline{\underline{\sf X = Y}}$

$\huge\underline\blue{\sf Explanation:}$

Our weight on moon is less than it would be on Earth due to a difference of the strength of gravity on the moon.

The moon's gravitation force is determined by the mass and the size of the moon.

Since the moon has significantly less mass than the Earth, it will not pull objects toward itself at the strength that Earth will.

This means that if you went to the moon you would weightless, even though your mass stays the same.

Here , we can understand that :-

On moon weight of the object changes due to gravitational force but mass does not change on the moon.

And in our Question has asked to find the mass therefore it will be X = Y

Mass on earth is equal to mass on moon .
