The Earth attracts all bodies towards its centre. The force exerted by the Earth on a body is called the weight of the body. This force acts towards the centre of earth that is in vertically downward direction. It is an example of non contact force , even if the an object is not in contact with the Earth, the Earth pulls it. The weight of an object having the mass as “m”, placed on the surface of earth, is given by the relation
where g= acceleration due to gravity
Due to low gravitational force on the moon. The acceleration due to gravity on Moon is one sixth of the acceleration due to gravity of Earth. Thus the weight of a person on moon is of the weight on the earth.
Illustration: A person has a mass as 70 kg, while the acceleration due gravity on Earth is . Find out the weight of this person?
Solution: Here, mass(m) = 70 kg and g =
As we know that weight Therefore,
Hence, the weight of the person = 686 N
Illustration: An individual weighs 250 N on the moon. Calculate the mass of the individual .
Solution: Here, w = 250 N and acceleration due to gravity(g') on moon =
As we know
Therefore,
The force exerted by the Earth on a body is called the ___________________ . | |||

It was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.
It has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
A marvelous experience with Abhyas. I am glad to share that my ward has achieved more than enough at the Ambala ABHYAS centre. Years have passed on and more and more he has gained. May the centre flourish and develop day by day by the grace of God.
Being a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
It was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
My experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
One of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
About Abhyas metholodology the teachers are very nice and hardworking toward students.The Centre Head Mrs Anu Sethi is also a brilliant teacher.Abhyas has taught me how to overcome problems and has always taken my doubts and suppoeted me.
I have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
Abhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
