Explanation :
It is given that, the weight of the person on the earth is 600 N. The weight is equal to :
W = m g
where
g is the acceleration due to gravity on the earth, g = 10 m/s²
[tex]600\ N=m\times 10\ m/s^2[/tex]
m = 60 kg
We know that the mass of an object remains constant everywhere.
The value of g on moon is, g' = 1.63 m/s²
So, W' = m g'
[tex]W'= 60\ kg\times 1.63 m/s^2[/tex]
W' = 97.8 N
Hence, the weigh on the moon is 97.8 N.
