The gravitational pull on the moon is \(\frac{1}{6}\) that of the earth. If a body weighs 6.0 N on the moon, what will be the weight on the earth?
6.0 N
5.0 N
12.0 N
36.0 N
Erläuterung
A person would weigh six times less on the moon than they do on Earth.
OR
A person would weigh six times more on the earth than they do on moon.
\(\frac{1}{6} of x\) = 6.0N on the moon
x = 6 * 6 = 36
