A backpack weights 8.2 newton sand has a mass of 5 kg on the moon . What is the strength of gravity on the moon?

To find the strength of gravity on the Moon, we can use the formula ( F = m \times g ), where ( F ) is the weight (8.2 newtons), ( m ) is the mass (5 kg), and ( g ) is the acceleration due to gravity. Rearranging the formula gives us ( g = \frac{F}{m} ). Plugging in the values, we get ( g = \frac{8.2 , \text{N}}{5 , \text{kg}} = 1.64 , \text{m/s}^2 ). Thus, the strength of gravity on the Moon is approximately 1.64 m/s².
