The distance an object falls from rest through gravity is
D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Distance = (1/2 acceleration of gravity) x (square of the falling time)
We want to see how the time will be affected
if ' D ' doesn't change but ' g ' does.
So I'm going to start by rearranging the equation
to solve for ' t '.
D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Multiply each side by 2 : 2 D = g t²
Divide each side by ' g ' : 2 D/g = t²
Square root each side: t = √ (2D/g)
Looking at the equation now, we can see what happens
to ' t ' when only ' g ' changes:
-- ' g ' is in the denominator; so bigger 'g' ==> shorter 't'
and smaller 'g' ==> longer 't' .
-- They don't change by the same factor, because 1/g is inside
the square root. So 't' changes the same amount as √1/g does.
Gravity on the surface of the moon is roughly 1/6 the value
of gravity on the surface of the Earth.
So we expect ' t ' to increase by √6 = 2.45 times.
It would take the same bottle (2.45 x 4.95) = 12.12 seconds
to roll off the same window sill and fall 120 meters down to the
surface of the Moon.

Answer:
one-third of its weight on Earth's surface
Explanation:
Weight of an object is = W = m*g
Gravity on Earth = g₁ = 9.8 m/s
Gravity on Mars = g₂ =
g₁
Weight of probe on earth = w₁ = m * g₁
Weight of probe on Mars = w₂ = m * g₂ -------- ( 1 )
As g₂ = g₁/3 --------- ( 2 )
Put equation (2) in equation (1)
so
Weight of probe on Mars = w₂ = m * g₁ /3
Weight of probe on Mars =
m * g₁ =
w₁
⇒Weight of probe on Mars =
Weight of probe on earth
NASA’s Apollo Mission was the ONLY mission which landed humans on the moon, which it did six times. I’m not very sure about several times, though. Hope this helped!
