No. The earth's mass is equal to about 82 times the moon's mass.

(Moon's mass is equal to about 1.2% of the earth's mass.)

Is Earth bigger or moon?

The Earth is not only larger but much more massive than the Moon is.


Do Earth and the moon have the same mass?

No. Earth is about 80 times more massive than the moon.


Why does earth exerts a greater force than the moon?

There are two reasons: The Earth is more massive than the Moon, and the Earth is closer to you than the Moon. If you were standing on the Moon, then the force of gravity due to the Moon would be greater because you are closer to the Moon.


Does an object weigh more on the moon or on earth?

It weighs more on the earth. The moon is much less massive than earth, so it attracts objects with a smaller force.


Does the object weigh more on the earth or moon?

It weighs more on the earth. The moon is much less massive than earth, so it attracts objects with a smaller force.


How many times more massive is the Earth than the moon?

The Earth has 81 times the mass of the Moon, but is only 49.3 times larger by volume. This demonstrates the relatively less dense nature of the Moon compared to Earth, because it does not have the same large, dense iron core.


Is Jupiters moon big as earth?

Jupiter's largest Moon is Ganymede. It is slightly larger than the planet Mercury. As the Earth is more massive than Mercury, the answer is no.


Does moon have a larger mass than earth?

Yes, the Moon has about 1/81 of the Earth's mass.


Why can the moon not escape from the earth?

The earth is six times more massive than the moon. That keeps the moon in orbit around it, just as the mass of the sun keeps the earth in orbit around it.


Why is the common center of rotation for the earth-moon system within the earth rather than between the earth and the moon?

Because the Earth is far more massive than the Moon is. If the center of rotation (also known as the "barycenter") was between the Earth and the Moon, then they would be co-planets rather than planet and moon.


Why could an astronaut carry more massive equipment on the moon than on Earth?

An astronaut can carry more massive equipment on the moon than on Earth because the moon has lower gravity compared to Earth. This means there is less gravitational force pulling down on the equipment, making it easier to lift and carry heavier loads.


Why can a astronaut carry more massive equipment around on the moon than on earth?

Because anything on the surface of the moon has only about 1/6 the weight that it has on the Earth's surface.
