Answer:
1/9th of mass of body on earth that is
1/9×4.5
=0.5 kg
Explanation:
Gravity on a planet is calculated by the formula,
g = GM / r²
where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of planet and r is the distance of separation between the surface and the centre of planet.
Let the mass of earth be M and let it's radius be r.
So gravity of earth,
g(earth) = GM/r² [Equation 1]
Given, another planet has
mass = 1/9th of earth = M/9
it's radius = half of earth = 1/2r
So gravity of the planet,
g = G×M /9 / (1r/2)²
g = G×M /9 / (1r²/4)
g = G×M /9 × 4/r²
g = 4/9 × GM/r²
g = 4/9 × g(earth) [From equation 1]
Therefore, gravity of planet is 4/9th the gravity of earth.
We know,
gravity of earth = 10m/s² (approx)
Given, mass of body = 4.5kg
Gravity of another planet,
g = 4/9 × 10m/s²
Weight on another planet = mg
Weight = 4.5kg × 4/9 × 10m/s²
Weight = 20kg
