How would the mass of an object change if it were on the moon?

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.


Why would your weight would change if you went to the moon but your mass would not?

* Mass doesn't change because of conservation of mass. * Weight changes because it is the product of mass x gravity - and gravity on the Moon is less.

If you weigh 100kg and went to the moon which has 16 the gravity of earth would your weight change?

yes it would change


Why does the weight of an object change when you go the moon?

It is because the gravity on the moon is one sixth of the gravity on the Earth


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.


What characteristics will be guaranteed to change if on the Moon?

gravity


How old would someone be on the moon if they were 13 on Earth?

You would still be 13. The lessened gravity of the moon would not be sufficient for you to notice any significant temporal rate change.


Will a solid have the same mass on the moon?

Yes, a solid would have the same mass on the moon as it would on earth. An object's mass is independent of the force of gravity, so its mass would remain the same even in the absence of gravity (e.g. on a spaceship). What would change is the weight, which is measured with mass in proportion to gravity.


What would happen if you were on the moon?

If you were on the moon your weight would lower, as there is no gravity.


Suppose you took a trip to the moon how and why would your weight change would your mass change too?

Your mass would stay the same, but your weight would change. Weight is the effect of gravity acting upon an object, where as mass is the amount of matter an object has. Your "weight" measured on the Moon would be one-sixth your weight on Earth.


How does the amount of gravity change between Earth and Jupiter?

Since Jupiter is further than the moon, there is not as much gravity as the Earth and moon.
