What is the weight of an astronaut who has a mass of 90 kg on the moon? (Note: acceleration due to gravity of the moon is 1.62 N/kg

Respuesta :

Answer:

W = 145.8 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must remember that weight is defined as the product of mass by gravity, in this case lunar gravity.

W = m*g

where:

m = mass = 90 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 1.62 [kg/m²]

W = 90*1.62

W = 145.8 [N]
