object a has a mass of 3600 kg object B has a mass of 600 kilograms both objects were placed in different planets so that their weights are equal the gravity acting on object a is X of gravity acting on an object be

Respuesta :

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of an object is given by

[tex]W=mg[/tex]

where m is the mass of the object and g is the acceleration due to gravity on the planet.

We are told that object A and object B have same weight, so we can write

[tex]m_{A}g_{A} =m_{B}g_{B}\\3600*g_{A}=600*g_{B}\\g_{A}=\frac{600}{3600}g_{B}\\ g_{A}=\frac{1}{6}g_{B}[/tex]

so answer is gravity acting on object A is 1/6 of gravity acting on object B.
