How much does a 48 kg person weigh on moon?
Confusion in terminology: If you are a 48 kg person on earth , you will be a 48kg person on the moon . Mass is constant and does not change.
How much does a 40 kg person weigh on the moon?
On the moon that 40 kg child would have a weight of 6.64 Newtons (kg multiplied by gravity) because the moon’s gravity is 1/6th of the Earth’s gravity. Your mass on any planet on the solar system (Jupiter, Venus, Earth, or anywhere else) is the same because the amount of matter in you does not change.
How heavy is the earth?
5.972 × 10^24 kg
Earth/Mass
What is the weight of a 40 kg object on earth?
That is their mass, and it is the same anywhere in the universe. The person’s weight is about 40 x 9.81 = 392.4 Newton on our planet Earth.
What is the weight of a 50 kg child on earth?
490 N
The expression is given as: mass × acceleration due to the gravity. The weight of the 50 kg person at the surface of earth is 490 N. Hence the correct answer is option D.
How much would you weigh on the Moon?
You would weigh 42 kg on the moon as well. This is because weight is to be done on a balance, the condition of equality being when the two pans weigh (swing). So you would weigh yourself against 42 kg in weights.
How much would an object or person on Mars weigh?
Being that Mars has a gravitational force of 3.711m/s2, we multiply the object’s mass by this quanitity to calculate an object’s weight on mars. So an object or person on Mars would weigh 37.83\% its weight on earth.
What is the force of gravity on the Moon?
On Earth the force of gravity is about 9.8 m/s^2. 42 kg mass on Earth has a force due to gravity, weight, of approximately 411.6 Newtons. On the moon the force of gravity is about 1.6 m/s^2, so your force due to gravity on the moon is about 67 newtons. Your mass is still 42 kg.
Is a person lighter on the Moon or heavier on Earth?
Therefore, a person would be much lighter on the moon. Conversely, a person is 83.5\% heavier on earth than on the moon. What causes the differences in weight between the various planets?
