To determine the weight of the object on the unidentified planet, we can use the formula for weight:

\[
\text{Weight} = \text{mass} \times \text{acceleration due to gravity}
\]

We know the mass of the object is 9.00 kg and the acceleration (which is the gravitational acceleration on the planet) is 6.00 m/s².

Now, we can calculate it:

\[
\text{Weight} = 9.00 \, \text{kg} \times 6.00 \, \text{m/s²} = 54.0 \, \text{N}
\]

So, the object's weight on the unidentified planet is **54.0 N**.

The correct response is:

**54.0 N**
