Question

If your weight is 110 pounds and your mass is 11.2 kilograms, what would those values be if you were on the moon? The gravitational
force on the moon is 1/6 the gravitational force on Earth.​

Answer 1

weight would be 110lbs, weight doesn't change.

mass would be 11.2/6, as it is affected by gravity

Answer 2

Answer:

The weight would be 18.3 pounds and the mass would be 11.2 kilograms

Explanation:

The weight of an object is the force of gravity on the object and is given by the mass times the gravity:

Weight = mass x gravity

If the gravity on the moon is 1/6 the gravitational force on earth, then the weight of an object on the moon will be 1/6 of its weight on earth:

Weight on moon = mass x 1/6 gravity on earth = 1/6 weight on earth

Weight on moon = 1/6 (110 pounds) = 18.3 pounds

On the other hand, the mass of an object is a fundamental property and represents the amount of matter in the object, so it doesn’t variate. Then, the mass on the moon and on earth will be 11.2 kilograms
