Given that on the moon g = 1.6 m/s2, and on Earth g = 9.8 m/s2, if a car on the moon weighs 3.8 N, what is its mass on Earth? Do not write units in your answer, only numbers.

Round to one decimal place.

The weight of the car on Earth is 19.6

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The gravitational acceleration on the moon, = 1.6 m/s²

The gravitational acceleration on Earth, g = 9.8 m/s²

The weight of the car on the moon = 3.8 N

The weight of an object = The mass of the object, m × The gravitational acceleration acting on the object, g

The weight of the car = The mass of the car × The gravitational acceleration on the moon

∴ 3.8 N = The mass of the car × 1.6

The mass of the car = 3.8/1.6 = 2 kg

The weight of the car on Earth =The mass of the car × The gravitational acceleration on Earth, g

The weight of the car on Earth = 2 × 9.8 = 19.6

The weight of the car on Earth = 19.6.

0.11 m/s and 0.28 m/s should be correct
