Weight is defined as the force which pulls a body towards the centre of the planet. 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. Hence the correct answer to the given question is 60 kilograms. This is done by the fact that weight on Earth will be 6 times the weight on moon because earths gravitational pull is 6 times that on moon.

Answer:

All the substances on Earth will enjoy an acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2 on them because of Gravity.

Since, weight is a kind of force, the formula to compute Weight is similar as that of computing any force.

Therefore, weight = 10 kg * 9.8 m/s^2. weight = 98kg.m/s^2= = 98 newton.

So, the weight of the substance should be alike that of the figure on earth’s surface.
