Ratio of mass of earth and moon is 10:1. How will the gravitational force of moon on earth vary with the gravitational force of earth on moon?
Gravitational force of earth on moon > Gravitational force of moon on earth
Gravitational force of earth on moon ≥ Gravitational force of moon on earth
Gravitational force of earth on moon = Gravitational force of moon on earth
Gravitational force of earth on moon < Gravitational force of moon on earth
Answer explanation
We know according to universal law of gravitation all the objects attract each other with same force. Hence, Gravitational force of earth on moon is equal to Gravitational force of moon on earth So, option 3 is correct

Two sisters A and B having of weight 40 N and 35 N can pick up boxes with mass 12 kg and 15 kg respectively on earth. How much weight do you think they carry together on moon?
27kg
4.5 kg
162kg
None of these
Answer explanation
A person can carry 6 times heavier mass on moon as acceleration due to gravity on moon is 1/6 times to that on earth. So, weight they can carry together on moon = 6 × 27 = 162 kg
