Compared to its weight on Earth, a 5kg object on the moon will weigh

Physics
1 answer:
shutvik [7]4 years ago

Answer:

8.1 N/49 N=0.1653  which means 16.53% of the weight of the object on Earth.

Explanation:

On the Moon, where the gravitational constant is 1.62 \frac{m}{s^2}, the weight of the 5 kg object will be: weight_M=m*g_M = 5 kg * 1.62 \frac{m}{s^2} =8.1 N

Where the answer is in Newtons (N) since all quantities are given in the SI system.

On Earth, on the other hand, the weight of the object is:

weight_E=m*g_E= 5 kg* 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} = 49N

Therefore the object's weight on the Moon compared to that on Earth will be:

8.1N/49N=0.1653

That is, 16.53% of the weight the object has on Earth.
