he weight of an astronaut on the moon is 127 N, where the value of 'g' is only 1.7 m/s2. What would the weight of this astronaut be on the Earth (in N)?

I don't know if my attempt is rite?

127n/1.5ms^2
74.70N

Divide 74.70N with earth value of G. What is the earths value of G?

1 answer

The earth's value of G is 9.8 m/s².
If g on the moon is 1.7 m/s² and he weighed 127 N, he should be much heavier back on earth (because g on earth is 9.8 m/s²).
You can calculate that by ratios between 9.8 and 1.7 m/s²
