Quantity B 72 units
72 units

O Quantity A, because it is proportional to mass
O Quantity A, because it changes with gravitational pull
O Quantity B, because it is the gravitational pull exerted
astronaut
O Quantity B, because it is independent of the astronaut's location in space

Respuesta :

Answer:

Quantity A because it changes with gravitational pull.

Explanation:

Mass defines the constitutive matter of an object. It is immutable (does not change). Although it could be converted into energy, the matter is constant.

On the other hand, the weight of an object (gravitational force) depends on the acceleration due to gravity.

That is why an astronaut weighs about three times more on earth than on Mars. The gravitational acceleration on Mars is about one third that on earth.
