Question

Imagine you are visiting planet Mars You want to record your
weight your weight on this planet If your weight on Earth is 450N,
what would you record as your weight on mars? (Take
g=10m/s2 , mass of planet Mars= 6*1023Kg and
its radius is 4300 KM

Acceleration due to gravity on Mars,
gm=GMmRm2=6 67×10-11×6×1023(4 3×106)2=2
16 m/s2Weight on earth, We=mg   
(1)Weight on Mars,Wm=mgm   
(2)(1)÷(2),WeWm=mgmgm⇒450Wm=102
16⇒Wm=450×2 1610=97 2 N
