the mass of an object is the same, no matter where it is.
A 1 pound bag on the moon contains more apples. weight equals mass× gravitational aceleration. since the acceleration on earth is nearly 6 time the acceleration of the moon, thus if both bags have the same weight and the apples' mass on earth is x then there mass on moon is 6x
1.623 newtons per kilogram of mass. That's 16.55% of the gravitational force on Earth.
one kilogram.
No. The mass of the moon is a fraction of the earth's mass.
The mass of the moon is about 1/80 that of Earth.
On the moon, because of the mass difference between the moon and the Earth, it would weigh 1/6th of kilogram.
The mass is 1 kilogram anywhere. The mass doesn't change.The weight of 1 kilogram is 9.8 newtons (2.205 pounds) on earth,and 1.6 newtons (5.8 ounces) on the moon.
A kilogram (mass) on the moon is still a kilogram (mass)A kilogram (referred to as its weight) is about 1/6 of it's Earth weight or 160 g (approx)Aside: In common usage we talk about an object having a weight, not a mass (e.g. Your driver's license states your weight). In science a kilogram is a unit of mass. Weight is what we perceive when we try to lift that mass - it is the force of gravity pulling the kilogram mass to the Earth. It gets a bit confusing when you are at Earth's surface because a the kilogram mass has a numerically kilogram of force (usually referred to as weight) attracting it downwards.
For astronomical objects, it is more appropriate to talk about the mass of an object, not about its weight. The Moon has a mass of 7.35 x 1022 kilogram, that is about 1.2% of Earth's mass.
The mass on the Moon is still seventy kilograms (the same as on Earth) because mass is an inherent property of matter. However the 70 kilogram person would weigh 11.6 kilograms on the Moon because weight depends on gravity and the Moon's gravity is 0.1654 of that of the Earth.

No. It's mass would be slightly less.
-- 2,900 grams -- the mass of anything that weighs 6.393 pounds on the earth, or 1.044 pounds on the moon.
On Earth, 1 kilogram of mass weighs 2.205 pounds. On the moon, the same kilogram weighs 0.353 pound. We'll let you figure it out from there.
