normal gravity 19 If the force of gravity on the moon is one

normal gravity 1.9 If the force of gravity on the moon is one-sixth the force of gravity on Earth, then what is the force (N and lbf) on a 40.0-kg mass under the moon\'s gravity? What is the force (N and lbf) on a 4 mass under the moon\'s gravity? 0.0-lb,m tnr\' nrincinle the mass of a floating object

Solution

Mass of object M=40 kg

Force of gravity F=Mg (on earth)

Force of gravity on moon=(Mg/6)

g=9.81m/s2

So, force of gravity on moon F= (40x9.81/6) =65.4 N

2. mass of object M=40 lbm

g=32.17 ft/s2

Force of gravity on moon F=(40x32.17/6) =214.467 lbf
