It doesn't, the gravity is low, so it just makes you jump higher, an object's mass is unchanged.

How does gravity affect the object's mass and weight?

Gravity affects weight, it does not affect mass.


Do gravity affect the weight of an object?

Yes. Mass is constant for a given object. Weight is a function of mass and gravity, stronger gravity more weight.


Does gravity affect your weight and mass?

The force of gravity (or acceleration) affects weight but not mass. An object's mass does not change - it is the physical composition of the object. Weight increases as the force of gravity increases and decreases in the same way.


How are weight and mass diffrent?

Weight is how great or small the affect of gravity is on an object, whereas mass is the amount of physical particles in an object.


How gravity affect weight?

Gravity impacts weight because weight is calculated using F = M * A. F - Weight in this case M - Mass of your object A - Acceleration of gravity on the planet the object is on. Assuming mass remains constant and your acceleration (your gravity) increases, weight will increase. If acceleration (your gravity) decreases, weight will decrease.


Is an object's mass greater on Jupiter than on Earth?

Your mass never changes. Only your weight. Gravity does not affect mass.


Does mass equal half the weight of an object?

No. Mass and weight are two separate but related properties. Mass is the amount of matter within object. Weight is the amount of force an object experiences due to gravity. So and object's mass depends on the mass of the object and the strength of gravity where it is. Weight= mass x gravity.


Is the mass of an object plus gravity?

No. The force of gravity acting on an object's mass is weight.


How does weight affect gravity?

Weight is the force generated by mass when it is in a gravitational field. When a body is outside of a gravitational field, it is weightless but it still has mass.So gravity doesn't exactly affect weight; gravity causes mass to have weight.


What does mass and weight have to do with the law of gravity?

Mass is the amount of matter in the object. Weight measurement of force that gravity is exerting on the object.


Will acceleration due to gravity affect the weight of an object?

Yes. The weight of an object on the earth in Newtons is its mass in kilograms times the acceleration due to gravity, 9.8m/s2. W = mg


If acceleration equals gravity. what is the weight of the object?

Object's weight = (object's mass) multiplied by (acceleration of gravity in the place where the object is)
