उत्तर

A person weighs 60 N on earth. His weight on the moon will be 10 N.

Explanation:

The gravitational pull on the Moon is significantly weaker than that on Earth. Specifically, the gravity on the Moon is approximately $1/6$ of the gravity on Earth.

  • Weight on Earth = 60N
  • Weight on Moon = Weight on Earth × `1/6`
  • Weight on Moon = 60 N × `1/6` = 10 N

Therefore, a person weighing 60 N on Earth will weigh 10 N on the Moon.
