What will be the weight of an object on the moon if its weight on the earth is 48N. |
|
Answer» Answer: If you are a 48 KG person on EARTH , you will be a 48KG person on the moon . MASS is constant and does not change. But on earth where acceleration due to GRAVITY is 9.81m/s² ( an accepted value for working) then your weight on earth will be Weight = mass * acceleration due to gravity weight = 48kg * 9.81 m/s² = 471N And on the moon where acceleration due to gravity = 1.625 m/s² Weight on moon = 48kg * 1.625m/s² = 78N |
