If an object has a mass of 36g on earth it will also have a mass of 26g on the moon. This is because while weight varies depending on gravity, mass is a universal constant that reflects the number of molecules in an object.
It's mass would be the same (amount of matter) But it's weight would be less on the moon, yes.
Yes, the mass of an object will never change where as the weight will change depending on the forces acting upon it. As there is less gravity on the moon, there will be less downward force acting on the object, therefore it will weigh less.
Mass is invariant; something with a mass of 26 grams on Earth will still have a mass of 26 grams on the moon. The actual SI unit for weight is the Newton; the weight of the object in Newtons will be less on the moon than it was on the Earth.
The definition of weight is mass times gravity. The value for gravity on earth is 9.8 m/s2 and the gravity on the moon is 1.622 m/s2. Since the moon's value is less than earth's, your weight would be smaller.
No. Object weight less on the moon because the gravity is not as strong, but mass remains the same.
No. Objects weigh less but mass is constant.
It's mass would be the same
yes
No. The mass of an object does not change. However and object's weight, which is a function of mass and gravity, is less on the moon than on earth.
Mass is the amount of matter in an object. Mass is constant, regardless on the acceleration due to gravity of different planets. So, if someone were to compare their mass on Earth and on the Moon, it would be the same, because the amount of matter in object would not change. However, weight is the force of gravity pulling down on an object. If you were to weigh yourself on Earth and on the Moon, you'd weigh much less on the Moon since there is less acceleration due to gravity. Recall that acceleration due to gravity on Earth is -9.81m/s^2.
If the object's mass is 120g, then it's 120g. On Earth, on the moon, on Mars, or floating weightless in a space ship coasting from one of them to another. Weight depends on where you are, but mass doesn't.
Exactly the same. Mass is the same everywhere. The weight will be 1/6 less on the moon though.
Simple. Weigh it
The mass of an object itself does not change on the moon. However, an object's weight is less than it would be on Earth because the moon's gravity is weaker than Earth's gravity.
It's mass would be the same
It's mass would be the same
Yes it is. An object's weight is the force (pull) that gravity exerts on the object's mass. Thus if you were to move the object to a place where the pull of gravity was different (from Earth's) - eg the Moon, then the object would weigh less but it would still have the same mass.
No. The mass of an object does not change. However and object's weight, which is a function of mass and gravity, is less on the moon than on earth.
The moon is smaller than the Earth so that would mean the size is smaller and the mass is also smaller because the mass depends on the size of the object so the moon would have less mass than Earth.
Weight decreases as gravity decreases.
Gravity is determined by the mass of an object. An object with twice the mass will have twice the gravitational pull. Since the moon is much smaller (has a lot less mass) than earth, the gravity on the moon is less than on earth.
Mass is a measure of how much matter something has. Weight is the effect of gravity pulling on that mass. So an object that weighs 1kg on Earth would weigh less on the Moon which has less gravity even though the mass of the object is constant. The relationship is: Force of gravity on an object in a certain place = (object's mass) x (acceleration of gravity in that place) .
Mass is the amount of matter in an object. Mass is constant, regardless on the acceleration due to gravity of different planets. So, if someone were to compare their mass on Earth and on the Moon, it would be the same, because the amount of matter in object would not change. However, weight is the force of gravity pulling down on an object. If you were to weigh yourself on Earth and on the Moon, you'd weigh much less on the Moon since there is less acceleration due to gravity. Recall that acceleration due to gravity on Earth is -9.81m/s^2.
The strength of gravity of an object is proportional to its mass. The moon has much less mass than earth does.
If the object's mass is 120g, then it's 120g. On Earth, on the moon, on Mars, or floating weightless in a space ship coasting from one of them to another. Weight depends on where you are, but mass doesn't.
