HELP PLSSS(100 POINTS!)

Two descriptions about physical quantities are given below:
Quantity A: It is a force.
Quantity B: It changes when the object travels from Earth to Earth's moon.
What quantities are these most likely describing? (4 points)
A. Both Quantity A and Quantity B are mass.
B. Both Quantity A and Quantity B are weight.
C. Quantity A is weight and Quantity B is mass.
D. Quantity A is mass and Quantity B is weight.

Answer 1

I would base my answer on the choices. There are only two parameters mentioned: mass and weight. Mass is constant regardless of the the location. So, definitely it is neither Quantity B nor Quantity A. Weight, on the other hand, is a consequence of gravitational force. Since gravity is different in the moon and the Earth, weight varies. Thus, the answer is B.
