An astronaut takes her bathroom scales to the moon, where g = 1.6 m/. On the moon, compared to at home on earth:

(A) Her weight is less, and her mass is less.
(B) Her weight is the same, and her mass is less.
(C) Her weight is the same, and her mass is the same.
(D) Her weight is less, and her mass is the same.
(E) Her weight is zero, and her mass is the same.

(D) Her weight is less, and her mass is the same.

Explanation:

Mass is the total amount of matter contained in the body.

Weight is the force exerted by gravity on a mass.

When the value of g is more, weight is more.

For moon g= , whereas for earth

Thus weight is more on earth as compared to moon.

On the moon, compared to at home on earth: Her weight is less, and her mass is the same.

  the unit of the measure =

explanation:

  the property that is quantified by the energy needed per of material to raise the temperature by one.

  si unit of energy = joule (j)

  si unit of temperature = kelvin (k)

  si unit of mass of material = kilogram (kg)

the property that is quantified by the energy needed per of material to raise the temperature by one is called specific heat.

the unit of specific heat is
