A class 9 student booked his ticket to moon. His travel company
allowed him to carry 15 kg of baggage. After he reached the moon, he
contacted his friend and, in the discussion, the following questions
were raised. Answer any four of them to get full marks. (take standard
values of gravity on earth and moon)
a) What is the weight of the baggage on earth?
b) What is the weight of the baggage after reaching the moon?
c) What is the mass of the baggage on moon?
d) Mention the units of mass and weight?
e) When is mass and weight are equal?

Respuesta :

Answer: LET'S TAKE GRAVITY ON EARTH AS 10 N/KG AND ON MOON AS 0.6 N/KG

a) weight=15kgx10N/kg

               = 150N

b) weight=15x0.6=9N

c) mass=is the same so 15kg

d) mass is measured in kg, weight in NEWTONS OR [tex]KG M/S^{2}[/tex]

e) when the gravitational force is zero
