I swear this is true, bloke at work does nights same as me, was talking to him yesterday, and he says hes bought a bike to come to work on. I said “good idea, pain in the arse if you dont feel like the pedalling home after a shift”, “thats no problem,” he says"the missus fetches me in a morning!"
I didnt bother to explain,at least hes getting fit at night I suppose

Not content with worrying about other peoples’ hours/checks/money/driving/and whatever else, it now seems that drivers are concerned about their colleagues’ health/carbon footprint/partner/fitness…
A sad state of affairs.
Is it beyond you to just live your own life and leave others to theirs? Can you not just leave people alone?

It was the Goverment that started it, you had best tell them first!!!

“Flawed Logic” alright.
Is he on drugs? If not a trip to the Trick-cyclist may help.
What is the gross mass of a 120kg man in a spacesuit when he is standing on the moon?
What ever his gross mass is on earth. The fact he’s standing on the moon means nothing. An earth measurement is valid on the moon in the absence of any known certifying lunar authority.
The flawed logic is saying anything other than 120kg…
I told you the mass, which is the same anywhere. Many would enter 20kg and get it wrong 'cos they think the moon’s gravity is 1/6th of the earth’s. It might be, but that only alters the weight not the mass.
Accelerating to the speed of light makes a difference, but not an experiment anyone is likely to perform to overturn the answer already given.
Yeah, but the question asked “what is the gross mass of a 120kg man in a spacesuit when he is standing on the moon?”
(Ignoring the irrelevant location) Surely the spacesuit has mass of its own in addition to the 120kg man? So the gross mass would be 120kg + mass of spacesuit.
Arrghh! the point I was trying to make here is that most people would elect for the 20kg answer, thinking that they “Know something” when they know the moon has 1/6th the gravity of the earth, which is well within the bounds of “General Knowledge”. The trick of the question is the mass factor which is the same anywhere. THe moon is just a red herring to get you to select the wrong answer by making the easy mistake that many might make… Confusing mass with local weight.
The actual 120kg bit is irrelevent, as whatever it is comes out the same regardless. Space suit included or not.

Don’t even bother asking which is heavier, a ton of lead or a ton of feathers

Would it depend if on the moon ?
If you hailed from Wiltshire,you would know that there isnt a moon . . its a cheese
