Gravity is what gives us our weight. Weight causes downward resistance to our legs and jumping muscles. This slows down how fast we move, as well as less resistance of upward inertia.
On the moon the force of graivity is much less, and thus our muscles have less resistance, and our upward inertia will continue more than if there were more gravity.

How high can you jump on the moon?
you can jump about six time higher on the moon than you can here on earth.
If you went to the moon you could jump much higher and farther because?
You could jump much higher and farther because there us less gravity on the moon so it never pulls you down so you can jump higher and farther.
How many miles long can you jump higher than a moon?
2163
Why can you jump higher on the surface of the moon than on the surface of the earth?
You can jump higher because the moon has a weaker gravitational pull:) Gravity is what pulls you down so you don't float off into space on earth
By exerting the same force Steve can jump higher on the Moon than on Earth Why?
because the moon has no gravity.
Could you jump up higher on the Moon or on Earth?
You can jump higher on moon,because there's less gravity.
Why a person standing on the moon can jump higher than a person standing on earth?
It's simple Gravity you see...When you jump on earth the gravity pulls you down however if you jump on the moon there is no gravity meaning you'll just float off and eventually land.
How high can you jump on the moon?

Would you jump higher on the moon or on earth?
i think the moon
If you went to the moon you could jump much higher and farther because?
You could jump much higher and farther because there us less gravity on the moon so it never pulls you down so you can jump higher and farther.
How would your ability to jump change on the moon?
You will be able to jump six times higher on the moon because the moon's gravity is 1/6th of Earth's.
How could your ability to jump change on the moon?
The gravity on the moon is about one sixth that of the Earth. So a person weighing 180 pounds on Earth would weigh 30 pounds on the moon but would be just as strong as on Earth. Hence, you could jump much higher.

What are good jump rope exercises?
Jack Cascio shows you in this video how you can jump higher and dunk.
What is one effect of the weak gravity on the moon?
A person from Earth jumping on the Moon will jump almost 5 times higher than they can on earth. If you weighed yourself as 100 pounds on Earth, you would only weight about 17 pounds on the Moon.
