On Earth - bringing the gold from the Moon back to Earth would cost more than the gold is worth.Note that under the given assumptions, you would get more gold on the Moon for the same price.

How would you present weight change if earth had twice the mass it does now?
If Earth had the same size but twice the mass you would weight twice as much
What is your weight on earth if your weight on the moon is 36kg?
There is gravity on the moon! The gravity on the Moon is 1/6th that of what is observed on Earth. An object with a weight of 36 kg on Earth would weigh 1/6th that on the Moon. 1/6th of 36kg is, 6 kg. An object with a MASS of 36 kg on Earth would have the same 36 kg MASS on the moon. Mass is the amount of matter that makes up an object, whereas WEIGHT is the measurement of the force of gravity on that MASS. This is why your weight will change when visiting other planets, but your mass stays constant plant to planet!
How much would you weigh on jupiter compared to earth?
weight on jupiter=((mass of jupiter)*(Radius of earth)2/(mass of earth)*(Radius of jupiter)2)*weight on earth
What happens to your weight if the mass of the earth increases?
If the mass of the earth were to increase, then the forces that attract you and the earth toward each other would increase. You would say that your weight has increased. Nobody ever measures the force in the other direction ... the earth's weight on you ... but we know that the forces are equal in both directions, so that one would also increase.
If The force of gravity on the moon is approximately one sixth that of the earth The direct variation formula for weight on the earth compared to weight on the moon would be?
The force of gravity on the moon is approximately one sixth that of the earth. The direct variation formula for weight on the earth compared to weight on the moon would be weight on earth divided by 6 is equals to weight on the moon.
How would your weight be affected if earth instead shrunk?

Where on the earth would the weight of body be zero why?
on the centre of the earth.
Would you have the same weight on earth as on the moon?
no. Your weight would be 1/6 what it is on earth because the moon has 1/6 the gravity
How much would you weigh on Titan?
On Titan you would weight about 18% of your weight on Earth.
Would your weight be greater if earth gained mass?
Yes your weight would be greater.
How would you convert your weight on earth to your weight on Saturn?
Multiply weight on Earth by 1.064. So if you weighed 100lb on Earth you'd weigh 106.4lb on Saturn.
How would you find a persons weight on Venus?
Weight on Venus = 0.904*weight on earth.
