Question

The mass and weight of an object on earth are 5 kg and 49 N respectively what will be their value on the moon assume that the acceleration due to gravity on the moon is 1/6th of on the earth

Answer 1

heya..........


The steps to calculate the question is:


1.) Find the acceleration due to gravity on the earth's surface
.
2.) Acceleration due gravity on the surface of the moon.


NECESSARY FORMULAS


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
