Weight on the Moon = 291 N.
W = g · m, where m stays for the mass and on the Moon g = 1.67 m/s²
291 N = 1.67 m/s² · m
m = 291 kg m / s² : 1.67 m/s²
m = 174.25 kg
Weight on Earth = 9.81 m/s² · 174.25 kg = 1,709.4 N
Answer:
The weight of an astronaut on Earth is 1,709.4 N.

Acceleration is always measured in meters per second squared. Why is acceleration not measured in meters per second like speed?
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Because 'distance per second' is a velocity, not an acceleration.

Explanation:

Because 'distance per second' is a velocity, not an acceleration. For example, at 1 m/s an object is travelling a distance of 1 metre every second. But a rate of acceleration is a steady increase in velocity. So at 1 m/s^2, an object's velocity is increasing by 1 m/s every second.

As you may have experienced yourself, water alone will not remove oil from a dirty dish. Why does soap work to remove oil
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Soap breaks up the oil into smaller drops, which can mix with the water. It works because soap is made up of molecules with two very different ends (one end of molecules are hydrophilic, so they love water; the other end of molecules is hydrophobic, so they hate water).
