Answer:
(a) 490 N on earth
(b) 80 N on earth
(c) 45.4545 kg on earth
(d) 270.27 kg on moon
Explanation:
We have given 1 kg = 9.8 N = 2.2 lbs on earth
And 1 kg = 1.6 N = 0.37 lbs on moon
(a) We have given mass of the person m = 50 kg
As it is given that 1 kg = 9.8 N
So 50 kg = 50×9.8 =490 N
(b) Mass of the person on moon = 50 kg
As it is given that on moon 1 kg = 1.6 N
So 50 kg = 50×1.6 = 80 N
(c) We have given that weight of the person on the earth = 100 lbs
As it is given that 1 kg = 2.2 lbs on earth
So 100 lbs = 45.4545 kg
(d) We have given weight of the person on moon = 100 lbs
As it is given that 1 kg = 0.37 lbs
So 100 lbs
