Question

PLEASE HELP I GIVE BRAINLIEST AND 15 POINTS

Answer 1

The mass of the man would remain the same…
His weight would change. Assuming the man’s weight on earth is 60N.
Since weight is a force, according to Newton’s second law, F = ma ( m = mass, a = acceleration due to gravity) First lets find the mass of the man, as it is required to find his weight on the moon.
F=ma[taking a of earth as10m/s
2
]
60=m.10[divide10onbothsides]
m=
10
60
​
= 6 Kg
Acceleration due to gravity on the moon is83%less than the acceleration due to gravity on earth(1.622m/s
2
).
F=ma
F=6.1.622=9.732 N
So a person weighting 60N on earth would approximately weight around 10Non the moon.
