An astronaut weighing 248 lbs on Earth is on a mission to the Moon and Mars. (a) What would he weigh in newtons when he is on the Moon

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Weight

Mass of Weight  

Generally the acceleration due to gravity on the Moon is one-sixth that on Earth.

Therefore

The equation for Weight on Moon is given as

F ’= 40.9 lb

Explanation:

The weight of a body is the attraction of the Earth on the body

          F =

          F = mg

          m = F / g

          m = 248/32

         m = 7.75 slug

The weight of the body on the moon is the attraction of the body for the satellite

         F ’=

from the tables the mass and radius of the moon are M = 7.34 10²² kg and R = 1.74 10⁶ m

let's reduce the mass to the SI system

         m = 7.75 slug (14.59 kg / 1 slug) = 113 kg

         F ’= 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 113 7.34 10²² / (1.74 10⁶) ²

         F ’= 1.82 10² N

         F ’= 1.82 10² N (0.2248 lb / 1 N)

         F ’= 40.9 lb

weather forecasts are done by collecting data about the current state of the atmosphere mainly the temperature, humidity and wind and using meteorology, to determine the atmosphere that evolves over time. the h and l mean the high and low pressure. the red strip is a warm front. the blue strip is a cold front. the blue and red strip is a stationary front. the purple strip is a occluded front.
