(Yes. The mass on the moon is 1/81 than it is on Earth.)
No I'm sorry but this is incorrect.
Mass is a measure of the number of particles you have, i.e how big you are
Weight decreases on the moon, as it is a force caused by gravity.

∙ 12y agoYour mass wouldn't change as a result of traveling to the moon. However, you would weigh less because of the lower gravity on the moon. (Your weight is equal to your mass multiplied by the local gravitational acceleration.)

∙ 13y agoYour mass (and inertia) are the same on the Moon as they are on Earth. However your weight on the Moon will be less than when you are on Earth. This is because MASS is an intrinsic property of matter while weight is caused by your local gravity field.

Your weight on the moon would be about 16% of what it is on Earth.

∙ 11y agono, on the moon your weight changes but your mass never changes on any planet
Wiki User
∙ 11y agomass would not change on the moon because mass is inside that object. Therefore, you cannot grow an extra bone on the moon so your mass would have to be the same.

How would your mass and weight differ on the moon?
-- Your mass doesn't change, no matter where you are. -- Your weight on the moon is 16.5% of what it is on Earth.
What is the mass of a 30N chicken on the moon?
The mass will not change. Its weight measured on the Moon would be 1/6th of what it is on Earth.
Does your mass change if you were to travel to the moon?
Your mass will not change, but your weight will.
Would your weight change if you went on the moon?
Good question. Yes, your weight would change, but your mass would not. People often confuse weight with mass.If your mass is 50kg, then your weight on Earth is 500N - weight is a force, and it is equal to mass x acceleration due to gravity.Because the force of gravity on the moon is much less, about 1/6 of that on Earth, your weight would be about 80N. Your mass, however, would still be 50kg.
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.

What is your weight on earth if your weight on the moon is 36kg?
There is gravity on the moon! The gravity on the Moon is 1/6th that of what is observed on Earth. An object with a weight of 36 kg on Earth would weigh 1/6th that on the Moon. 1/6th of 36kg is, 6 kg. An object with a MASS of 36 kg on Earth would have the same 36 kg MASS on the moon. Mass is the amount of matter that makes up an object, whereas WEIGHT is the measurement of the force of gravity on that MASS. This is why your weight will change when visiting other planets, but your mass stays constant plant to planet!
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.

How would your weight and mass change if you went to the moon?
If you measured your mass and your weight and then went to the moon, you would find that your mass had not changed, and your weight had become about 83 percent less.
Would your weight and mass change on the moon?
So if you take your weight then divide it by 6.13 that is your on the moon and your mass stays the same.
What is the mass of a 30N chicken on the moon?
The mass will not change. Its weight measured on the Moon would be 1/6th of what it is on Earth.
How does the weight and mass of an object change if it is on the moon?
Such an object's mass would not change, or it wouldn't change significantly. Its weight will be reduced, approximately by a factor of 6.
Does your mass change if you were to travel to the moon?
Your mass will not change, but your weight will.

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.
