Question

type the correct answer in each box. gravity on earth is 9.8 m/s², and gravity on the moon is 1.6 m/s². so, if the mass of an object on earth is 40 kilograms, its mass on the moon is kilograms and its weight on the moon is newtons.

Explanation:

Step1: Understand mass property

Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and is constant regardless of location. So if an object has a mass of 40 kilograms on Earth, its mass on the Moon is also 40 kilograms.

Step2: Calculate weight on Moon

The formula for weight is $W = mg$, where $m$ is mass and $g$ is gravitational - acceleration. Given $m = 40$ kg and $g_{moon}=1.6$ m/s². Then $W=40\times1.6$.
$W = 64$ N

Answer:

40
64
