Drawing a free-body diagram for this problem

Answer: Look at the attached picture, ask me any questions if you are still confused. It is a little messy since I didn't have my pen.

Find its weight on Earth

Answer: The weight is dependent on the mass of the object and the gravitational constant on the planet. The gravitational constant, in this case, is 9.8.

   so the weight = mass * gravitational constant = m * g = 1000 * 9.8

                          = 9800 N

Hope that helps!
