Answer :
Mass of the object = 10 kg
Weight of the object on earth = \( W = m × g \)
\(\therefore \) \( W = 10 × 9.8 \)
\( W = 98 N \)
Weight of the object on moon =\( \frac{1}{6} \) th the weight on the earth.
As the gravitational force on the surface of the moon is only \( \frac{1}{6} \) th as strong as gravitational force on the surface of the earth.
\(\therefore \) Weight of the object on moon \( = \frac{98}{6} \ = \ 16.3 N \)
Weight on earth = 98 N
Weight on moon = 16.3 N
