Physics (AS & A Level) · Oct / Nov 2018 · Paper 12 · Question 8

The acceleration of free fall on the surface of planet P is one tenth of that on the surface of planet Q. On the surface of P, a body has a mass of 1.0 kg and a weight of 1.0 N. What are the mass and the weight of the same body on the surface of planet Q?

1. Amass on Q / kg: 1.0, weight on Q / N: 0.1
2. Bmass on Q / kg: 1.0, weight on Q / N: 10
3. Cmass on Q / kg: 10, weight on Q / N: 10
4. Dmass on Q / kg: 10, weight on Q / N: 100
