Help!!
I don’t get how to do this q 11
I though I could find the force using f equals ma for when’s it on earth and using a as 9.8 (gravity on earth)
I got 2077.6
Then I thought maybe I could use F for the moon as the same F to calc a but I get a wrong answer.
Can u plz explain how to do thisIMG_2781.jpeg

The weight on the moon is given and is mg where g is the moon's gravitational acceleration. So simply solve.
