Answer:
An object on the moon would weigh the LEAST among these. So correct answer is B.
Explanation:
- Weight of an object on any place is given by:
W = Mass * Acceleration due to gravity(g)
- It means when masses of different objects those are in different places are same, the weight of those objects depends upon the 'g' of that particular place.
- As we know, acceleration due to gravity on surface of moon (g') is 6 times weaker than the acceleration on surface of earth (g), which is due to the large M/R^2 of the earth than the moon.
i.e. g' = g/6 so W' = W/6
- And in the space between the two, the object is weightless.
