Answer:

the free-fall acceleration on the moon is 1.68 m/s^2

Explanation:

recall the formula for the gravitational potential energy (under acceleration of gravity "g"):

PE = m * g * h

replacing with our values for the problem:

46 J = 91 * g * 0.3

solve for the "g" on the Moon:

g = 46 / (91 * 0.3)

g = 1.68  m/s^2
