Explanation / Answer

Q5. mass of the bag of sugar=4 lb=1.81437 kg

free fall acceleration on moon=1/6 of acceleration due to gravity on earth

=(1/6)*9.8

=1.6333

then weight=mass*g=1.81437*1.6333=2.9635 N

weight on saturn=mass*g=1.81437*(1.13*9.8)=20.092 N

mass of the bag remains the same at all places:

earth : 1.81437 kg

moon: 1.81437 kg

saturn: 1.81437 kg
