10 kilograms, of course. If you take an object to the Moon, its weight will change, but its mass won't.
A newton (N) is actually a unit of force. Since a force is equal to a mass times an acceleration according to Newton's second law, the weight of this object on Earth is equal to 40 N / 9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity on Earth). This object weighs around 4.1 kg. On the moon, the force of gravity will be less because the moon is less massive. The acceleration of gravity on the moon is 1.62 m / s^2. The force of gravity acting on this object on the moon would be 1.62 m / s^2 * 4.1 kg. This is around 6.6 N and substantially less.
A 10-kg mass would weigh 98 newtons (22.05 pounds) on earth, and 16 newtons (3.6 pounds) on the moon.
The answer is 562.178 lbs (approx.). Kilogram is the SI unit of mass and pound is an imperial unit of mass. To convert from kg to pound, multiply the kg unit by 2.20462.
The Moon's mass is 8.09942316 × 10^19 tons.
The person's mass on the moon is still 60 kilograms. Their weight would be about 10 kg.

1 kilogram = 2.20462262 pounds 10 kilogram = 22.0462262 pounds
The mass stays the same anywhere.. its 10 N
The weight of any object is caused by the gravitational field of the nearest, large object. For a 1kg mass on the Earth its weight is about 10 Newtons. On the moon, the same 1kg mass would have a weight of about 2 Newtons.
On the moon, 10 kg of mass weighs 16.2 newtons (3.65 pounds). (rounded)
-- Acceleration of gravity on the moon =(universal gravitational constant) x (moon's mass)/(moon's radius)2-- Gravitational force on any object sitting on the moon's surface =(Acceleration of gravity on the moon) x (mass of the object)-- Universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10-11 newton-meter2/kilogram2

The kilogram is a measure of mass, not a measure of force. His mass will remain the same (i.e. 60kg) regardless of the gravitational field he is in. But as the moon has a weaker gravitational field than the Earth the bathroom scales that stopped at 60 on the Earth will stop at 10 on the Moon.
Kilogram is a unit of MASS, not a unit of WEIGHT. A small child might have this mass (a newborn typically has a mass somewhere between 2-4 kg.)
A 10-kg mass would weigh 98 newtons (22.05 pounds) on earth, and 16 newtons (3.6 pounds) on the moon.
