Why do more meteors hit the moon than the earth?
because it has a more gravity and it pulls it towards the moon
Does Earth have more gravity than the Moon?
Yes. On the moon you can jump really high and you weigh less because there is less gravity weighing you down.
Why are there more visible impact craters on the moon than on earth?
The moon has no atmosphere and hence no weather. Weather causes erosion. Living things are another cause of erosion that happens on Earth and not on the moon. The Earth is also more tectonically active. Continental drift happens on Earth, but doesn't happen on the moon. And earthquakes and volcanoes resulting from plate tectonics also can obliterate impact craters. And even the fact that the moon has a lower gravity than the Earth helps to preserve its craters; the walls of the craters weigh less and are therefore less likely to collapse.The earth has an atmosphere and the moon does not. Very little changes on the moon but on earth the weather changes the landscape and overgrowth covers up otherwise more obvious patterns.
Why do geologist think earths core contains mostly iron?
Other orbiting bodies contain more iron then earths crust does
Why does earth have the most amount of gravity?
The amout of gravity is directly related to the mass of the body, since the earth has more mass it also has more gravity than the moon just like Jupiter has more mass than earth so it has more gravity.
Who has more craters the earth or the moon?
there are more craters on the moon then on earth
Do you weight more on the moon then you do on earth?
No; you weigh more on the Earth than you do on the moon.
What is The moon has more gravity than the earth.?
"The moon has more gravity than the earth." is a question (about the moon and gravity).
How is the Moon and Earth different from the Earth?
The moon is much more smaller than the Earth.
Which has more gravity earth or moon?
The Earth has about six times more gravity than the Moon.
What weights more earth or moon?
The mass of the Earth is six times more than the moon.
Does earth have more than one moon?
No. The Earth only has one moon.
What plant has more moon then earth?
Sunflower has more moon than Earth because it grows towards the sun more.
Would an object weigh more on the earth or the moon?
The planet Earth has more gravitation pull than its moon. Therefore the weight on earth is more than that on the moon. The mass though does not change.
Does the earth have more than 1 moon?
No the earth only has one moon in its orbit
Which requires more fuel -- a rocket going from the Earth to the Moon or a rocket coming from the Moon to Earth?
the moon because it has only one sixth of the gravitational pull that Earth does
Do Earth and the moon have the same mass?
No. Earth is about 80 times more massive than the moon.
