Use the universal law of gravitation, insert the known value for the gravitational constant, and use the fact that each kilogram is attracted by a force of 9.8 Newton.
if g=9.8m/s, G=6.7*10-11Nm2kg-2,calculate the mass of earth, if the radius of the earth is approximately 64m
On Earth, 75 kilograms of mass weighs 165.35 pounds. That's quite a hound!
(all figures approximate)Mass of earth = 5.97 * 1024 kilogramsRadius of earth = 6.371 * 106 metresVolume of earth = 4/3 * pi * radius3 = 1.0832 * 1021 cu metresSo:(average) density = mass / volume = 5,510 kgs / cu metre
You multiply the mass by the gravity. Normal Earth gravity is about 9.8 (in meters/second2, or the equivalent newton/kilogram).
Density = mass / volume since earth is nearly spherical, Volume = (4/3)pi x r3 find volume, then divide this into the mass.
Find what the mass here on earth is then multiply it by three
Calculate the mass on Earth (gravity = 9.8), and assume that the mass on the Moon will be the same.
if g=9.8m/s, G=6.7*10-11Nm2kg-2,calculate the mass of earth, if the radius of the earth is approximately 64m
Weight = Mass X (acceleration due to gravity), which on Earth is 9.8m/s^2.
10 kilograms is the mass. To calculate the weight (in newtons), multiply the mass by 9.8.
On Earth, 75 kilograms of mass weighs 165.35 pounds. That's quite a hound!

Mass and weight are different.BUTTo make it complicated they are both stated in pounds or Kilograms SoWeight is how much force is holding to the planets surface. On the moon this is about one sixth of earth Mass is the same on earth and the moon or in deep space and is used to calculate how much energy it will take to move you.The answer you are looking for:Yes, the Mass of a person is the same on the moon and Earth.
To calculate this speed, you need some more numbers, not just the distance from Earth to Sun. You need to know:* The gravitational constant * The distance from Earth to Sun * The mass of the Sun You DON'T need the mass of the Earth. Assume any mass; you can just call the mass of the Earth "m". Then calculate an expression for the gravitational attraction between Earth and Sun. Divide by the mass of the Earth, and you get a centripetal acceleration. Assuming a circular orbit for simplicity, the centripetal acceleration must be just this force. Use the formula for the centripetal acceleration along a circle (a = v squared / radius). (Don't forget to convert the distance from Earth to Sun, to meters!) Solve for "v".
In order to calculate that quantity, you would need a number to use for the Earth's mass.
