If a body weighs 12N on the surface of the earth, how much will it weigh on the surface of the moon where acceleration due to gravity is only one-sixth of that on earth's surface?

Correct Answer: 2N

Explanation:

Weight is mass x g. Since mass is constant and g is only  1 6 t h of that on the earth. The weight on the moon is only  1 6 t h  of that on the earth. 


Therefore 2N i.e (b) is the answer.
