Answer:

50 lb

Explanation:

Given,

The weight of astronaut's life support backpack on Earth (w) = 300 lb

Acceleration due to gravity on Earth (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Acceleration due to gravity on Moon = g'

g'=\frac{g}{6}

We know that weight of an object on Earth is,

w = m\times g

m = \frac{w}{g}

Similarly, weight on Moon will be

w' = m\times g'

w' = \frac{w}{g}\times\frac{g}{6}

w' = \frac{300}{6}

w' = 50

Thus the astronaut's life support backpack will weigh 50 lb on Moon.
