Find you weight on different planets F=ma W=mg

A worksheet which I found online, which I have adapted and corrected (as there were loads of errors). Its a bit of a collaboration, but it works as a worksheet. When you are teaching about the effects of gravity on a student's mass, get them to calculate their WEIGHT on the different planets. All you need is some scales and the equation W=mg. You can calculate their weight on earth either with scales that are in Newtons, or by multiplying their weight by 10 (approx! or 9.81 if KS5) i.e a student weighs 65 kg, this is equivalent to 650 N, or 637N. Enjoy! I hope you find it useful!
