We know the equation
weight = mass × gravity
To work out the weight on the moon, we will need its mass, and the gravitational field strength of the moon.
Remember that your weight can change, but mass stays constant.
So using the information given about the earth weight, we can find the mass by substituting 100N for weight, and we know the gravity on earth is 10Nm*2 (Use the gravitational field strength provided by your school, I am assuming yours in 10Nm*2)
Therefore,
100N = mass × 10
mass= 100N/10
mass= 10 kg
Now, all we need are the moon's gravitational field strength and to apply this to the equation
weight = 10kg × (gravity on moon)

Science may also be defined as the study of surroundings
Answer:
Explanation:
According to <u>Coulomb's Law:</u>
<em>"The electrostatic force
between two point charges
and
is proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance
that separates them, and has the direction of the line that joins them".</em>
<em />
Mathematically this law is written as:
Where:
is the electrostatic force
is the Coulomb's constant
and
are the electric charges
is the separation distance between the charges
Solving:
