Solution

  1. To find the mass of the object on the Moon, we can use the formula:

Weight = mass * acceleration due to gravity

On Earth, the weight of the object is given as 10 kg. The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s^2.

So, on the Moon, the weight of the object would be 1/6 of its weight on Earth.

Let's calculate the weight of the object on the Moon:

Weight on Moon = (1/6) * Weight on Earth = (1/6) * 10 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 = 1.63 kg

Therefore, the mass of the object on the Moon is 1.63 kg.

Answer: None of the given options (A, B, C, D).

  1. The net force on an object is the vector sum of all the forces acting on it. In this case, the object is being pulled with forces of 90 N to the right and 90 N to the left.

Since the forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, they cancel each other out. The net force is the sum of these forces, which is zero.

Therefore, the net force on the object is 0 N.

Answer: A. 0 N

  1. When the bus suddenly stops, your body will tend to continue moving forward due to inertia. This means that your body will tend to move in the same direction and at the same speed as the bus was moving before it stopped.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

B. Your body will tend to move forward.
