Weight is another term for the force from mass multiplied by acceleration due to gravity, the equation being expressed as
f = ma, being force, mass, and acceleration respectively.

We already have 2 parts of the equation,
50 = 10a

Acceleration due to gravity on the planet is
5 m/s^2

Plug it into the equation
f = ma


f=6kg x
5m/s^2

Weight or force from gravity is 60N.
