1. The mass of an object on the Earth is 100. kg.
a. What is the weight of the object on the Earth?
b. What is the mass of the object on the moon?

Respuesta :

Answer:

980N

100kg

Explanation:

Weight is Mass * Gravity.

For question a, the object with a mass of 100 kg will have a weight of

100 * 9.8 = 980N

For question b, the mass of the object will stay the same, even if it is on the moon. Therefore it is 100kg.

(a). The weight of the object on the Earth is 980 N.

(b). The mass of the object on the moon is 100 kg.

The weight of the object on the earth has been considered to be affected by the Gravitational force as it has been acting on the object.

(a) The weight of the object on Earth can be given by:

Weight = mass [tex]\times[/tex] Gravitational Force

Given, the mass of the object = 100 kg.

The gravitational force = 9.8N

Weight of the object = 100 [tex]\times[/tex] 9.8 N

Weight of the object = 980 N

(b) The mass of the object has been independent of the gravitational force that has been acting on the object.

Thus, the mass of the object on earth = the mass of object on the moon.

The mass of the object on the moon = 100 kg.
