Explanation:
Gravity on the surface of the Moon is only 1/6 as strong as gravity on Earth.
The value of acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth is [tex]g=9.8\ m/s^2[/tex]
The weight of a 10 kg object is, [tex]W=mg[/tex]
[tex]W=10\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2[/tex]
W = 98 N
The weight of the object on the Moon is :
[tex]W=m(g/6)[/tex]
[tex]W=10(9.8/6)[/tex]
[tex]W=16.33\ N[/tex]
Hence, this is the required solution.
