If you parachuted on the moon and earth which one will you fall faster on?

you will fall faster on the earth because earth has a higher gravity


Would a feather fall faster or slower on earth than the moon?

A feather would fall faster on Earth than on the Moon due to Earth's stronger gravitational pull. The Moon has less gravity than Earth, so objects fall more slowly on the Moon.


How objects fall on Earth and on the moon?

Objects fall towards the ground due to gravity on both Earth and the moon. However, the acceleration due to gravity is higher on Earth than on the moon, so objects fall faster on Earth compared to the moon. Additionally, the lack of atmosphere on the moon affects the way objects fall by reducing air resistance.


Why does paper fall faster on the moon?

Faster than on Earth? The reason it falls slowly on Earth is because of air resistance. You can also make it fall quickly on Earth if you make it fall within a vacuum chamber.


How much does an apple weigh on the moon?

An apple would weigh approximately 1/6th of its weight on the moon compared to Earth due to the moon's lower gravity. For example, if an apple weighs 1 pound on Earth, it would weigh about 0.17 pounds on the moon.


Which property of an apple is different on earth than itis on the moon?

The weight of an apple would be different on Earth compared to the Moon due to the difference in gravitational pull. Specifically, the apple would weigh less on the Moon than on Earth because the Moon's gravitational force is about one-sixth that of Earth's.


Newton figured out that the force that made an apple fall from a tree was the same as the one keeping the Moon in orbit around Earth?

The legend is that Newton made the connection between the 2 questions when he watched the falling apple ........... Newton realized that the same unbalanced force affected the motions of the apple and the moon.It all has to do with gravity. The moon pulls the waves with the force pulling up or rising the waves, well the apple is brought to the ground with the force or the gravity on Earth.Legend says that Newton, said that the force that made the apple fall from the tree, makes earth fall from the sun and the moon fall from the earth. This force operates throughout the Universe and is a Universal Force..


If the earth spins faster would the moon go faster around the earth?

No. The speed of the moon's orbit does not depend on Earth's spin; it depends on Earth's mass. However, a faster spin on Earth's part would make the moon appear to move across the sky faster, as it would for the sun and stars.


What would fall faster on the moon a object with more mass or an object with less mass?

In the absence of air resistance, all objects fall at the same rate regardless of their mass, as demonstrated by Galileo's experiment on Earth. Therefore, on the moon, an object with more mass would not fall faster than an object with less mass.


Why does the Moon's shadow fall on part of the earth?

Because the moon comes between the sun and Earth, casting the moon's shadow on Earth.


Why does the moon not fall to earth because of what force or phenomenon?

The moon does not fall to Earth because of its orbit and the force of gravity. The moon's speed and distance from Earth create a balance between the gravitational pull of the Earth and the moon's inertia, keeping it in a stable orbit.


How does the weight of an apple change when you move it from the earth to the moon?

Anything, including an apple, weighs heavier on earth due to earth's gravity. The gravity on the moon is much less, so objects are lighter.
