What is the weight of a 4.2 kg bowling ball on Mars?
Answer:
1.59 kg
Explanation:
The formula is:
F = G((Mm)/r2)
F is the gravitational force between two objects,
G is the Gravitational Constant (6.674×10-11 Newtons x meters2 / kilograms2),
M is the planet's mass (kg),
m is your mass (kg), and
r is the distance (m) between the centers of the two masses (the planet's radius).
Hope this helps
