The mass of a boy is 50 kg. What will be his weight on the earth? How will his mass and weight change on moon? Take g = 10 m/s2 on the earth.

Solution

Mass space of space the space boy space equals space 50 space kg

Weight space of space the space boy space on space Earth space equals space mg space

space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space equals space 50 space cross times space 10

space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space equals space 500 space straight N

Mass space on space the space moon space equals space 50 space kg

Weight space on space the space moon space equals space straight m straight g over 6 space
space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space equals space 50 space cross times 10 over 6 space equals 83.33 space straight N.
