The Apollo 11 and 12 missions brought back different types of lunar rocks, available to see at the Lunar Planetary Institute in Clear Lake (see the 'read' link below). If one set of rocks weigh 65 lbs on the moon, what is their weight on earth? The lunar gravity is 5.30 ft/s2 and earth gravity is 32.2 ft/s². The mass of the rocks is slugs (do you know this unit?). The weight of the rocks on earth is lbs.
