Q: If the mass of a person is 60 kg on the surface of earth then the same person's mass on the surface of the moon will be:
  • A. 0 kg
  • B. 360 kg
  • C. 60 kg
  • D. 10 kg
Correct Answer: Option C - According to the formula, Weight = mass x gravitation Gravitational value on moon is 1/6th to that of the Earth. But question has been in reference with mass which is a constant Quantity and is independent of gravity. Hence the mass of an individual is remains same, 60 kg at every place. Or that of moon.
