kg (kilogram) is a measure of mass, not of weight. If a person has a mass of 120 kg on Earth, he will also have a mass of 120 kg on the Moon. His weight will change, his mass won't change.
Mass is measured in kilograms and weight is measured in newtons..
In daily life we use to say that this person having weight 120 kg but that is not correct .But in scientific language we must say that person is having a mass of 120 kg and his weightwould be calculated according to gravity of earth that is 9.8m/sec .Weight is actually the force ...
so weight would be
force = acceleration * mass
weight = gravity * mass
weight =9.8 * 120=1176 newton(On earth)
Gravity on moon is 1/6 of earth i.e. 9.8/6=1.64m/sec
And on moon also the mass would be 120 kg and the weight would be
force = acceleration * mass
weight = gravity * mass
weight = 1.64 * 120=196.8 newton (On Moon)
As you can see the weight(force) on earth is 1176 newtonfor person having mass 120 kg and the weight(force) on moon is 196.8 newton.
As the force on man on earth is 1176 newton so he would feel much more heavier.
And the force on man on moon is 196.8 newton so he would feel lighter there.
So the person having mass 120 kg will have more weight(force) on earth than on moon.
Dont get confuse between mass and weight ...
if you are 55 kg ...in daily use word we say our weight is 55 kg but that is not weight instead it's your mass and your weight is (55*9.8=539 newton) means you have mass 55 kg and weight 539 newton...
if you still get problem do mail me
