A person whose mass is 100kg travels from Earth to Mars in a spaceship. Neglect all other object in sky and take acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Earth and mars as 10 m/s2 and 4m/s2 respectively. Identify from the below figures, the curve that fits best for the weight of the passenger as a function of time.

Detailed Solution:W1 = 1000 N ->Weight of person at surface of earth W2 = 400 N Þ Weight of person at surface of Mars. There will be a neutral point -N where weight will be zero because at this point net gravitational field due to earth and mars is zero.
