Question

What will be the weight of an object
on the surface of the earth whose
mass is 10 kg on the moon's
surface?

Answer 1

Answer:

60 kilograms

The weight is directly proportional to the gravitational force of any area. The gravitational force on moon is one sixth of the gravitational force on earth. Hence if a body is weighting 10 kilo on moon, its weight on the earth will be 60 kilograms.

Answer 2

Answer:

60kg

Explanation:

Weight on moon = 1/6th weight on earth or (weight on Earth will be 6 times the weight on moon because earths gravitational pull is 6 times that on moon.)

10kg=1/6th weight on earth

therefore weight on earth=6*10=60kg
