Answer: The weight of a 72.0 kg astronaut on the Moon is 117.36 N.
Explanation:
Mass of the astronaut on the moon , m= 72 kg
Acceleration due to gravity on moon,g = 1.63
According to Newton second law of motion: F = ma
This will changes to = Weight = mass × g
The weight of a 72.0 kg astronaut on the Moon is 117.36 N.
If the mass of an object doubles, the weight of the object also doubles
If the mass of an object halves, the weight of the object also halves
Explanation:
The mass of an object is an intrinsec property of the object that gives a measure of the "amount of matter" in the object. Mass is indipendent from the location of the object.
On the contrary, weight gives a measure of the force of gravitational attraction felt by the object in a gravitational field. Weight is dependent on the location.
The mass and the weight of an object are related by the following equation:
where:
W is the weight of the object
m is its mass
g is the acceleration of gravity
We see from the formula that the weight of an object is directly proportional to its mass. This means the following:
- If the mass of an object doubles, the weight of the object also doubles
- If the mass of an object halves, the weight of the object also halves
