If the mass of an object on Earth is 100 kg, what is its weight on Earth? (Assume g=9.8m/s2 )
980 N
100 N
9.8 N
1000 N
What is the mass of an object on the moon if its mass on Earth is 100 kg?
16.67 kg
100 kg
600 kg

Assuming the acceleration due to gravity on the moon is one-sixth of that on Earth, what is the weight of a 100 kg object on the moon?
16.33 N
98 N
163.33 N
980 N
Explain why the mass of an object remains the same on both Earth and the moon.
Mass is dependent on gravity.
Mass is the amount of matter in an object, which does not change with location.
Mass changes with the object's speed.
Mass is affected by temperature.
A man can exert the same force with his legs on both Earth and the moon. Will he be able to jump higher on the moon? Why or why not?
Yes, because the gravitational force is weaker on the moon.
No, because his mass is greater on the moon.
Yes, because his weight is greater on the moon.
No, because the gravitational force is stronger on the moon.
Calculate the force exerted by gravity on a 50 kg object on Earth. (Use g=9.8m/s2 )
490 N
50 N
9.8 N
500 N
If a 60 kg object weighs 360 N on a certain planet, what is the acceleration due to gravity on that planet?
6 m/s²
9.8 m/s²
3.6 m/s²
60 m/s²
Discuss the relationship between mass and weight. How does this relationship change when moving from Earth to the moon?
Mass and weight are the same on both Earth and the moon.
Mass remains constant, but weight changes due to different gravitational forces.
Both mass and weight change when moving from Earth to the moon.
Mass changes, but weight remains constant.
What is the weight of a 75 kg object on the moon if the gravitational acceleration is 1.63 m/s²?
122.25 N
75 N
490 N
735 N
