The weight of an object is the effect of the gravitational pull on the object. Weight is calculated by multiplying mass of the object by the force of gravitational pull acting on it. A man weigh 120 N on earth. What will be his weight on the Moon, which has a gravity 1/6 of the gravity of Earth?​

Answer:

20N

Step-by-step explanation:

mass=weight/gravitational pull

mass=120/10

mass=12Kg

weight=mass×gravitational pull

=12× (⅙of 10)

=12×1.666666666667

=20N
