A 600 N astronaut travels to an asteroid where the gravitational force is one-hundredth that of Earth. What is the astronaut's weight on the asteroid?
A
6 N

B
6 kg

C
600 kg

D
60,000 N

Respuesta :

Answer:

A) 6N

Explanation:

the weight of the astronaut on earth can be calculated with the formula

Weight = mass * gravity of earth

Since the gravitational force is one-hundredth of Earth, the formula should be

Weight = mass * (gravity of earth / 100)

Weight = (mass * gravity of earth) / 100

Since you already know the weight, you only need to divide by 100

Weight = (mass * gravity of earth) / 100

Weight = 600N / 100

Weight = 6N

Answer:

6N
