Assuming that the body is at standard sea level, g = 9.81 m/s^2 F = mg = 40 x 9.81 = 392.4 N Btw, newtons is a unit of force whereas kg is a unit of mass......

w=mg
=40*10
=400 N

weight= mass * acceleration
acceleration on earth is taken as 9.8 m/second square.
so weight is 40*9.8= 392 N.
acceleration on moon is taken as 1.6 m/second square.
so weight on moon is 40*1.63= 65.2 N

thought you need acceleration to change mass into newtons.
F = newtons.
F= mass (kg) x acceleration (m/s^2)
if acceleration is 9.8 for gravity plug that in. 9.8 x 40 = 392

about 390 newtons...not exact but very close...39kg is 382.5 newtons

w = mg
w = 40kg(9.8m/s^2)
w = 392 N
Good luck and God bless!
