Why do men weigh less on the moon?
because the moon has less mass than earth so humans weigh less on the moon than earth
Why do objects weigh less at the equator than at the moon?
Yes they do because the gravity is less the moon. But on earth so you are likely to have a smaller mass on the moon then on earth. But in a way you feel lighter you are still the same weight on earth then on the moon
If you weigh less on the moon do you have less mass?
No, you have the same mass. The reason why you weigh less is because the moon has a less gravitational pull on you since it has less mass than the earth.
Why would you weigh more on earth then moon?
The reason we weigh the amount we do is because the gravity is as strong as it is. However on the moon the gravity is not as strong, therefore we weigh less.
Why do objects weigh less on the moon than they do on the earth?
Gravity is strong here. It is the same reason we are held down on the planet
Why do objects weigh less on moon than on earth?
because the moon's mass is about one-sixth that of the Earth
Does a hammer weigh less on the moon because the moon has a smaller atmosphere?
Yes to the "weigh less" part, no to the "because" part.
Why do objects weigh less on the Moon than on Earth-?
It is because there is less gravitational force on the moon.
Does the Moon's mass being less than the Earth's make objects weigh less on the Moon?
Yes, that is exactly what makes you weigh less on Earth then on the Moon, though your mass hasn't changed, your apparent weight does.
Why do objects weigh less at the equator than at the moon?
Yes they do because the gravity is less the moon. But on earth so you are likely to have a smaller mass on the moon then on earth. But in a way you feel lighter you are still the same weight on earth then on the moon
Why do men weigh less on the moon?
because the moon has less mass than earth so humans weigh less on the moon than earth
Do objects weigh less on the moon than on the earth?
Yes, on the Moon everything weighs 1/6th the weight on Earth.

No, you have the same mass. The reason why you weigh less is because the moon has a less gravitational pull on you since it has less mass than the earth.
Where would you weigh the least on the Moon or on Venus?
On the Moon, because it has less gravity.
Why do astronauts weigh less on the moon then they do on earth?
because of gravity
Is it true that do you weigh more on the moon than you do on earth?
No, you weigh less because the moon has less mass, or is smaller, than earth whick means that is has less of a gravitational pull.
Is an objects mass its weight?
The weight of an object depends on two things:The objects massThe gravitational pull acting on the objectSo an object with a mass of 50 kg will weigh less on the Moon than on Earth because the Moon's gravity is one sixth that of the Earth's.
