solution: part a.

We have two equations that will allow us to calculate g of the moon without having to use the mass of an object.

eqnarray9

Both of these equations have m, the mass of the object, but we can set them equal to each other and cancel m out.

eqnarray13

Now we have an equation to find g which is the acceleration due to gravity.
