When an object is 2 km above the surface of earth, it has a weight of 60 N. When this object is taken to another planet with the same density as that of the earth, it is found that its weight is 120 N. Find the radius and mass of the new planet. (Write your answer in terms of the radius R and mass M of the earth.)

Answer:
Acceleration due to gravity on the moon is 1/6 times as that on the earth and we know that mass is property of the material it always remains same and weight is measure of gravitational force, hence
mass of object on moon is 60kg and weight =60g/6=10×10=100N
