10 kilograms, of course. If you take an object to the Moon, its weight will change, but its mass won't.

If you weight 40 pounds on earth how much would you weigh on the moon?

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 object on the moon would have a?

A 10-kg mass would weigh 98 newtons (22.05 pounds) on earth, and 16 newtons (3.6 pounds) on the moon.


What happens to the weight of an object brought from earth to the moon?

When an object is brought from Earth to the Moon, its weight decreases significantly due to the Moon's weaker gravitational pull, which is about one-sixth that of Earth's. While the mass of the object remains unchanged, the weight is the force exerted by gravity on that mass, leading to a lighter sensation on the Moon. For example, an object that weighs 60 pounds on Earth would weigh only about 10 pounds on the Moon.


If a person's mass is sixty kilograms on the earth what is the mass on the moon?

The person's mass on the moon is still 60 kilograms. Their weight would be about 10 kg.


Mass of an object is 5kg its mass on the moon will be?

If the object's mass is 5 kg, then it's 5 kg. On Earth, on the moon, on Mars, or floating weightless in a space ship coasting from one of them to another. Weight depends on where you are, but mass doesn't.

What is the mass on the moon of a 10 N object on earth?

The mass of an object remains the same regardless of the location. Therefore, the mass of a 10 N object on Earth would be the same on the Moon. However, the weight of the object would be different due to the difference in gravitational pull between the two locations.


10 pounds equal how many kilogram?

1 kilogram = 2.20462262 pounds 10 kilogram = 22.0462262 pounds


How much is 1 kg?

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.


How do you solve the magnitude of the gravity on the moon?

-- 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


What is the weight in newtons of a 10kg object on the moon and on the earth?

On the moon, 10 kg of mass weighs 16.2 newtons (3.65 pounds). (rounded)

Which gold has more mass 10 pounds on the moon or 10 pounds on earth?

They both have the same MASS no matter where they are. On Earth it will weigh more because of greater gravity. MASS is a measure of the amount of stuff there is. WEIGHT is a measure of how much gravity is pulling on it.

Does mass or weight change on moon?

<p> Mass and weight are different physical quantities, Weight is dependent on the gravitational force which the planet on which the object is located applies, while mass is independent of this force, and is the actual 'matter content' of the object. There will be a change in weight of the object if taken on the moon, but the mass will remain unaffected. Mass 10kg implies: Weight (on Earth) = 10*9.8 = 98N As the gravitational force of moon is 1/6th pf that of earth, the weight of that object on Moon will be: 98* (1/6) = 98/6 = 16.33N *The mass will remain unchanged on the moon. </p>

What will be the total mass when mass is 30 kilogram and counter mass is 10 kilogram?

I am not sure what problem you are trying to solve, but I assume you have to add the masses.
