Question

c.) A 100 kg block weighs 220 lb on Earth. If theblock were transported to a planetary body that had the same free fall acceleration (as compared toEarth), which one of the following would be true? Theblock would have the same weight but a smaller mass.Theblock would have the same mass but a biggerweight.     Theblock would have the same weight but a bigger mass.Theblock would have the same mass but a smaller weight.Theblock would have the same mass and the same weight.

Explanation / Answer

The mass of the body is never change where ever we goso the mass is same but when the free fall acceleration is same as earththen the weight of the body is also same on earth and planet
