How do I find the weight on earth and mars? graityc, 9.82 : 4.454597/22Student Problem: The MartianEric Weir's popular 2014 science fiction novel, "The Martian," was made intoa major motion picture starring Matt Damon. The story centers on AstronautMark Watney, stranded on Mars when his crew is forced to abandon himwhen their surface mission is scuttled. Watney has a mass of 80kg. OnEarth, he would experience a surface gravitational acceleration of 9.81m/s²,while on Mars he experiences a surface gravitational acceleration of3.72m/s.fonce of gravityisaching downwardTHE MARTIANWhat is his weight on Earth?ANDY WEIRWhat is his weight on Mars?► If a scale from Earth were used in the habitat on Mars with nocalibration to correct for the gravitational differences, what wouldWatney's measured weight be? What is the conversion factor frompounds to Newtons? (on Earth, 1kg converts to 2.2lbs). Remember, ascale doesn't directly measure your mas. .. it measures the force dueto gravity that you exert on the scale and converts it to mass usingNewton's Second Law.A NOVELmass : 80 kq 981 mls A:3.72 m/e?Newtors + 1bs O24e13197.61bs exerted on carth
