Answer:

We would take the mass given, 80 kg, and multiply it times the acceleration of Earth's downward pull on that mass, 9.8 m/s/s. So the weight on Earth is 784 newtons. So the weight of the same 80 kg mass on the moon is 133.28 N.

hi

mass is express in Newtons.

On Earth gravity is 9.807 so wieght would be : 9.807 * 84= 823.79

On the Moon garvity is 1.62 so weight would be : 84 *1.62 = 136.08
