Scientists want to place a telescope on the moon to improve their view of distant planets. The telescope weighs 200 pounds on Earth. What will happen to the weight of the telescope when it reaches the moon?

Your weight on the Moon is 16.5% what you would experience on Earth. In other words, if you weighed 100 kg on Earth, you would weigh a mere 16.5 kg on the Moon. For you imperial folks, imagine you tipped the scales at 200 pounds. Your weight on the Moon would only be 33 pounds.
