An astronaut carried a pot containing soil weighing 60 N from the earth to the surface of moon. He kept it there and just before the return journey from moon to earth he weighed the soil on the surface of moon and found that it was only 10 N. Why did its weight decrease and how much was the loss in mass of the soil? (Searth 10 ms) (Smoon Bearth/6)

Mass is constant at every place so the mass of the soil did not decrease

Because g depends on location so weight is also depend on location. The mass of the moon is less than earth so its force of attraction is also less on the pot than the earth. Weight of an object on the moon is 1/6 of weight of an object on the earth
