Question

Please help me solve this? g on the sun is 274 m/s2 and on the moon is 1.62m/s2 Weight also varies according to eleveation. Why? Is this a good "weight loss" program? Which is more valuable, a Newton of gold weighed on the moonor on the earth? (Use W=mg to prove your answers) Please help me solve this? g on the sun is 274 m/s2 and on the moon is 1.62m/s2 Weight also varies according to eleveation. Why? Is this a good "weight loss" program?

Explanation / Answer

Weight also varies according toeleveation. Why?
Since g is inversely proportional to thesquare of the distance from the center of the planet.

Is this a good "weight loss"program?
No since it is the mass that we want to loose.

Which is more valuable, a Newton of goldweighed on the moon or on the earth? (Use W=mg to prove youranswers)
I would go for 1 N weighed on the Moon since it would contain moremass

mEgE =mMgM
mM =mE(gE/ gM )
