Here,
The mass of the boy is constant,m=30kg
so,his mass on moon will be=30kg
The acceleration due to gravity on moon is 1/6 times than that of earth.
And it is,g=1.63m/s^2
Weight,W=?
We know,
W=mg
or,W=30kg*1.63m/s^2
so,the weight is49kgm/s^2 or 49Newton on moon.(approximately)
Hope this will help you.
