A body of mass 10 kg is taken from the earth to the moon. If the value of g on earth is 9.8 m `s^(-2)` and on moon is 1.6 m `s^(-2)`, find the weight of the body on earth.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the weight of a body on Earth, we can use the formula for weight: **Step 1: Understand the formula for weight.** Weight (W) is given by the formula: \[ W = m \times g \] where: - \( W \) is the weight, - \( m \) is the mass of the body, ...
