m1=3600 kg
m2=900 kg
G1=m1g
G2=m2g
G2/G1=m2g/m1g=m2/m1=3600/900=4
Answer:
The answer is B. 1/4
Explanation:
Both objects are on the same planet therefore gravity acts the same upon each.
Object C mass is 3600 kg.
Object D mass is 900 kg.
The mass of Object C is 4 times the mass of Object D. (3600 / 900=4)
The mass of Object D is 1/4 times the mass of Object C. (900 / 3600=1/4)
Mass is proportional to weight. The more the mass, the more the weight.
Object C is heavier. Object D is lighter.
It's asking for the weight ratio of Object D to Object C therefore 900 is divided by 3600 to come to 1/4.
