The mass of a body on the surface of the earth is 12kg. If acceleration due to gravity on moon is 1/6 of acceleration due to gravity on earth, then its mass on moon will be: a)2kg b)12kg c)72kg d)zero
The mass is still 12kg. Mass is the amount of matter, so that is independent of gravity. However, weight differs. Weight of this object on earth would be 117.6 N and 19.6 N on the moon.
