Since the force of gravity is two times more than that of earth:
-The pull due to its gravity will be twice as much as that of earth= 9.8 x 2= 19.6m/s2.\
-The mass of an object in planet M will still be the same.(the mass does not change.
a)My mass on planet M:
= 50Kg
b)The weight will be:
times two that of earth
weight on earth F=ma = 50 x 9.8
= 490N
Therefore its weight will be twice= 490 x 2 = 980N
980 newtons.
or you could multiply the mass by the acceleration due to gravity on planet M directly.
19.6 x 50 = 980 newtons.

Weight = Mass × Gravity
On earth,
Weight = 50 × 9.8 = 490 N
On planet M,
Weight = 50 × 2(9.8) = 980 N
On earth,
Weight = 50 × 9.8 = 490 N
On planet M,
Weight = 50 × 2(9.8) = 980 N
