Your "weight" is the name you give to that gravitational force.
So your question actually says:
"Your weight just got three times stronger !
What happens to your weight ?"
Given mass= 1kg
Weight on earth = mg(gravity of earth) = 9.8N
weight on moon = mg(gravity of moon)= 1.62N
weight on outer space mg(gravity outer space = 0) = 0N
A girl standing on a floor would have two opposite forces acting on it. These forces are the weight and the normal force. Since no other forces are acting and that the girl is at rest, then the weight must equate to the normal force. Therefore, the supporting force would be:
F = mg = 55kg (9.81 m/s^2) = 539.55 N
The solution for the problem is:
Constant speed means Fnet = 0.
Let m = mass of wood block and Θ = angle of ramp; then if µk = 0.35 …
The computation would be:
Fnet = 0 = mg (sin Θ) - (µk) (mg) (cos Θ)
mg (sin Θ) = µk (mg) (cos Θ)
µk = tan Θ
Θ = arctan(µk)
= arctan (0.35)
≈ 19.3°
