@hailey_092112 find the mass first and than multiply it by 26m/s2

anonymous · Answer

you have to find her mass(M) by dividing her weight on earth(Fe) by the acceleration due to gravity on earth (Ge)$$M=\frac{ F _{e} }{ G _{e} }$$

anonymous · Answer

now, do what @KissMyAxe  said
$$F _{j}=M \times G _{_{j}}$$
the 'j's represent juiter

anonymous · Answer

Im still confused @Bowate

anonymous · Answer

You do know that mass of the object does not change

anonymous · Answer

yes

anonymous · Answer

find the mass using the formula i gave you

anonymous · Answer

you can do this since you know the weight and acceleration due to gravity on earth

anonymous · Answer

are you still confused
