Weight loss solution

Around the holidays, people typically gain weight as cookies, candy canes, and other treats are around every corner. But, this Christmas, you can lose weight! Without a diet, and without exercise, there is one answer to the essential question: "How can I lose weight?" Simple. Go to the moon.

Here is the calculation to prove this solution really works!

1) Find g:

g=[G(mass of moon)]/[(radius of moon)^2]

g=[6.67x10^(-11) x 7.35x10^22]/[(1737000 m)^2]

g=1.62 m/s^2

2) Convert your weight from lbs to kg

130lbs=59 kg

3) Weight (N)=mg

Weight = 59 kg (1.62 m/s^2)

Weight on the moon= 95.58 N

So, what do these results mean?

Your weight loss can be measured in Newtons as you went from about 579N to about 96N. Or, in lbs, you went from 130lbs to about 22lbs!

On the moon, you weigh approximately 17% of your weight on the earth.
