The moon has 1/6of gravitational force of earth that is a 60kg object weighs only 10kg on moon

Answer 2

Given :

Weight : 60 kgf

Explanation :

We know the following :

• Gravitational force on the moon is 1/6th times the Gravitational force experienced on Earth.

Keeping this in mind :

• W(moon) = 1/6th x W(earth)
• W(moon) = 1/6 x 60
• W(moon) = 10 kgf.

Answer : 10 kgf
