Example - The Weight of a Body on Earth vs. Moon The acceleration of gravity on the moon is approximately1/6of the acceleration of gravity on the earth. The weight of a body with mass1 kgon the earth can be calculated as Fg_earth= (1 kg)(9.81 m/s2) =9.81N The weight of the s...
problem 1: compute the weight of a body on the moon if the mass is 60kg? g is given as 1.625 m/s 2 . answer : it is known that, m = 60 kg and g = 1.625 m/s 2 formula for weight is, w = mg w = 60×1.625 w = 97.5 n problem 2: compute the weight of a body ...
them about your mass and not your weight. the same object albeit with the same mass of 50 kg will weigh 1/6 th on the moon what it did on earth. weight and mass mean the same thing on earth since the effects of gravity are fairly constant throughout the earth. it was upon our ...
These traditional methods could fetch objective information of sample data using self-contained mathematical theory and analysis; however, they depend on sample data excessively and are easy to get disturbed by data fluctuation, resulting in many deficiencies including complicated calculations, poor ...
