What is the weight of a 4.2 kg bowling ball on Mars?

Answer:

1.59 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is:

F = G((Mm)/r2)

F is the gravitational force between two objects,

G is the Gravitational Constant (6.674×10-11 Newtons x meters2 / kilograms2),

M is the planet's mass (kg),

m is your mass (kg), and

r is the distance (m) between the centers of the two masses (the planet's radius).

Hope this helps
