Share with your friends Share 0 Kuldeep Poonia answered this 1 View Full Answer Avni answered this Dear student, weight on moon m=20kg gravitational force on moon is 1.6m/s^2 W=MG =20*1.6 =32 Regards 1 Manushri answered this As we know a body's weight is the product of its mass and acceleration acting on it i.e W=ma given, m=20kg here acceleration (a) would be g=10m/s² {because on Earth a body experiences acceleration and due to gravity (g)} so, weight of the body on Earth is W=20×10=200kg as we know, weight on moon=61 weight on earth so weight on moon=6200=33.33kg -1 Daivik answered this Dear Student, Mass = 20 kg g = 9.8 m/s^2 W = Mg = 20*9.8 =196 N Weight on earth is 196 Newton ( N ). Since , weight on moon is 1/6 weight on earth. Weight on moon = 1/6*196 = 32.6 N Therefore , weight on moon is 32.6 Newton ( N ). Regards, Daivik Lakshmipathy. 1
