    W_planet = (W_earth*a) / g

    Explanation:

    The mass of the object does not change. It is the same at Earth and at the other planet.

    W_earth=Mg weight at Earth

    W_planet=Ma weight at other planet

    If we divide the last equations:

    W_planet/W_earth=a/g

    W_planet = (W_earth*a) / g
