Question

The mass and weight of an object on earth are 5 kg 49 N respectively. What will be their values on the moon? Assume that the acceleration due to gravity on the moon is 1/6th of that on the earth . ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Weight = Mass × Acceleration

Acceleration due to gravity on the earth's surface :

Weight = mg

49N = 5 × g

=>5g = 49

=>g = 9.8 m/s²

Acceleration on the moon :

=>1/6 × 9.8 = 1.6333 m/s²

The weight on the moon:

=>5 × 1.6333 = 8.1665N

=> or 8.167N(approx).....
