Question

What is the relation between Weight of an object on earth and that on the moon?​

Answer 1

The mass of moon is 1/100 times and its radius 1/4 times that of earth. As a result, the gravitational attraction on the moon is about one sixth when compared to earth. Hence, the weight of an object on the moon is 1/6th its weight on the earth.

Answer 2

If an object having a weight of x kg on earth is measured on moon, we'll see that it weighs 1/6th of it's original weight, i. e. x/6 kg on the moon.

This is because the gravitational pull on the moon is six times lesser compared to the earth.
