could somebody please give my 1 direct and 1 inverse "real world" questions with there answers. But the questions have to have a square or a cube in them. thats the part i dont get. Please help
 
If your weight varies directly with the square of the mass of the object on which you are standing, what is your weight on the Moon if you weigh 200 lbs on Earth?

I'm almost sorry, but I just couldn't resist this "real world" problem.

P.S. I just made that up. Don't go quoting physics books. :)
