Value of gravitational constant on earth and moon?
It's the same as that of Earth but the value of g varies from one object to the other. The value of the gravitational constant or the BIG "G" remains constant. I think you confused it with the LITTLE "g" which is the gravitation of a object (one with mass) or the acceleration due to gravity. The value of g on Earth and Moon is 9.8m/s^2 and 1.6249m/s^2, respectively. I hope this answers you all.
Is the spring constant is constant on the moon?
no the spring constant is not constant on moon because there is no restoring force there
What restriction exist in using 9.81 N per kg as the proportionality constant for determining weight?
It is an approximate average value for acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the earth. It is affected by altitude, the density of the material near the surface from place to place. And of course, it is totally useless in space, on the moon or Mars.
Does the moon have gravitational potential energy?
The gravitational potential energy doesn't actually reside in a single object, but in the relationship between two objects. Thus, there is a gravitational potential energy between Earth and Moon, or between a rock that you lift up on the Moon, and the Moon.The gravitational potential energy doesn't actually reside in a single object, but in the relationship between two objects.

An astronaut's helmet has a mass of 1.2 kg on earth and weighs 2.6 pounds it weighs 0.4 pounds on the moon and has a mass of how many kilograms?
1.2 kg. Mass is constant regardless of gravitational pull (loction).
