Explanation:
The acceleration due to gravity on the moon is 1.63 m/s².
Mass of a rock on the moon is 2000 N
The weight of an object is given by :
W = mg, where m is the mass of the object.
[tex]m=\dfrac{W}{g_m}\\\\m=\dfrac{2000}{1.63}\\\\m=1226.99\ kg[/tex]
Acceleration due to gravity on the Earth is 9.8 m/s². So,
[tex]W=mg_e\\\\W=1226.99\times 9.8\\\\W=12024.502\ N[/tex]
Hence, the mass of the rock is 1226.99 kg and its weight on the Earth is 12024.502 N.
