Question

A 85.0-kilogram astronaut weighs 834 newtons at the surface of Earth. What is the mass of the astronaut at the surface of the Moon, where theacceleration due to gravity is 1.62 meters per second squared?O 12.7 kgO 85.0 kgO 138 N0 638 N

Answer 1

85.0 kg

Explanation:

We have that the more mass the more it weighs. The weight of a body is not the same on Earth as it is on the Moon because the Moon is smaller than the Earth and has less mass and the force with which it attracts bodies is less (that is, the acceleration of gravity is different). But despite this the mass of the body does not vary even if we are in different places such as the Earth or the Moon.

Therefore, the mass would be the same, 85.0 kg
