Question

Which equation will calculate the weight, in pounds, of an object on the moon when its weight on Earth is x pounds?

Answer 1

Being that it takes the weight of an object on earth and converts it to lunar weight, the formula is Weight on the Moon= (Weight on Earth/9.81m/s2) * 1.622m/s2. To find the weight on the moon, we divide the weight on earth by the earth's force of gravity, which is 9.81m/s2. This calculates the mass of the object.
