The gravitational pull on planet A is greater than on planet B. Which of the
following best describes the mass and weight of an object that goes
from planet A to planet B? *
The mass and weight will be the same on both planets.
The mass will change, but weight will be the same.
The mass will be the same, but weight will change.
Both the mass and the weight will change.

Respuesta :

As relevant to the question here, an object’s mass refers to an intrinsic property of the object while weight refers to a force that depends on the local gravitational field. So, if an object moves between planets with different gravitational pull, the object’s weight would change but its mass would not.

The third option would thus be the correct one (the object of an invariant mass would have a lesser weight on planet B than on planet A).
