Answer: Alternative D.

------------------------------------------------

To calculate the gravitational weight of other planets, the formula is used:

[tex]\large\boxed{{\mathbf{P = m \cdot g}}}[/tex]

Data:

Mass(m): 1000 N

Gravity(g): 0.61

Weight(p): ?

We replace data:

P = m × g

P = 1000 N × 0.61

P = 610 N

Result: Its weight on Pluto will be 610 Newtons (Alternative D).
