Answer:
the acceleration due to gravity
Hope this helps (:
Explanation:
Weight is the force that an object experiences due to gravity. The weight changes on Earth and the moon because of the acceleration due to gravity. Thus, option D is correct.
Gravity is defined as the net acceleration that an object experiences because of the centrifugal force and gravitation. It is denoted by "g" and on earth is equivalent to 9.8 m/s².
The acceleration due to gravity is different on earth and the moon and affects the weight of the object. Though the weight changes, the mass remains fixed.
The object will experience weight change as it is brought away from earth resulting in the change in the force due to gravity that decreases the weight on Moon.
Therefore, the increase in the distance decreases the weight because of the force due by gravity.
