Mass and weight — practice question

A space rocket goes to the Moon. The acceleration of free fall is larger on Earth than it is on the Moon. How do the space rocket’s mass and weight on the Moon compare with their values on Earth?

  • Amass on the Moon less than on the Earth; weight on the Moon same as on the Earth
  • Bmass on the Moon less than on the Earth; weight on the Moon more than on the Earth
  • Cmass on the Moon same as on the Earth; weight on the Moon less than on the Earth
  • Dmass on the Moon same as on the Earth; weight on the Moon more than on the Earth
