Question

the weight of a body of mass 6kg on moon is 10 N. if a boy of mass 36 kg goes from earth to moon 's surface what will be his mass and weight

Answer 1

Answer:

Mass will not change from place tpo place.So its mass on moon will be 36 KG.

Explanation:

wieght will be 1/6of the earth.
So weight will be 6 KG on moon.
Surface gravity on Moon is 1/6th that of earth.

Answer 2

FOR BODY:
Mass, m = 6 kg
Weight, w = 10 N
Therefore, WKT,
Weight = Mass × Acceleration
Therefore, Acceleration, A = w/m
= 10/6 m/s²
FOR BOY:
Mass, M = 36 kg
Acceleration, A = 10/6 m/s²
Therefore, Weight = M×A
= 36×10/6
= 60 N
Mass remains same throughout.
