If a man can lift an object of mass 15 kg on earth. What will be the maximum mass he can lift with same force on surface of moon.

Solution

Hello ,
Force exerted by the man = weight of the object = m x acceration due to gravity on earth
= 15 x 10 = 150N
Acceleration due gravity on moon = 1.625 m/s2
With the force of 150N mass which can be lifted,
F = mg
150 = m x 1.625
m = 92.3Kg
