Because of a weaker atmosphere, it cannot trap heat like the earths can.

How do temperatures on the moon different from the earth?

Temperatures vary so much because the moon does not have an atmosphere.

If my weight is 58 in earth so how much in moon?

If your weight is 58 on earth it is different on the moon because the gravitational pull on the moon is different.


Why is weight of objects different on the moon than on the earth?

Gravity on the moon is one-sixth of that on Earth, so you will exert less force on the moon.


How do temperatures on the moon differ from those on Earth?

Temperatures on the moon can vary significantly, ranging from extremely hot during the day (up to 127 degrees Celsius) to very cold at night (as low as -173 degrees Celsius). This is due to the lack of atmosphere to regulate temperatures like on Earth where the atmosphere traps heat.


How come the new moon isn't always the first day of the month?

The time it takes the Moon to go around the Earth is constant, but the lengths of the months are different, so naturally a new moon will occur at different times each calendar month.The time it takes the Moon to go around the Earth is constant, but the lengths of the months are different, so naturally a new moon will occur at different times each calendar month.The time it takes the Moon to go around the Earth is constant, but the lengths of the months are different, so naturally a new moon will occur at different times each calendar month.The time it takes the Moon to go around the Earth is constant, but the lengths of the months are different, so naturally a new moon will occur at different times each calendar month.The time it takes the Moon to go around the Earth is constant, but the lengths of the months are different, so naturally a new moon will occur at different times each calendar month.The time it takes the Moon to go around the Earth is constant, but the lengths of the months are different, so naturally a new moon will occur at different times each calendar month.The time it takes the Moon to go around the Earth is constant, but the lengths of the months are different, so naturally a new moon will occur at different times each calendar month.The time it takes the Moon to go around the Earth is constant, but the lengths of the months are different, so naturally a new moon will occur at different times each calendar month.The time it takes the Moon to go around the Earth is constant, but the lengths of the months are different, so naturally a new moon will occur at different times each calendar month.The time it takes the Moon to go around the Earth is constant, but the lengths of the months are different, so naturally a new moon will occur at different times each calendar month.The time it takes the Moon to go around the Earth is constant, but the lengths of the months are different, so naturally a new moon will occur at different times each calendar month.


Why do wee see the moon in phases?

The moon orbits the Earth and as it does so we see sunlight striking the moon at different angles.


Does the moon circle around itself?

The moon rotates on its axis, which causes different portions of its surface to be visible from Earth at different times. This rotation is synchronized with its orbit around the Earth, so we always see the same side of the moon from Earth.


How does moon gets different shapes?

the sun rays always reaching to the moon. when the earth block the sun rays from reaching the moon, the lunar eclipse can be formed. But the moon revolves round the earth, the blocks are removing from the moon. so the moon got different shapes.


How does jumping on the moon compare to jumping on Earth?

Jumping on the moon is different from jumping on Earth because the moon has weaker gravity, so you can jump higher and farther. This is because the moon's gravity is about one-sixth of Earth's gravity.


Why does the moon look different from earth at different times of each month?

The appearance of the moon changes because of its orbit around the Earth. As the moon orbits, the amount of sunlight reflecting off its surface that we can see changes, causing different phases like full moon, new moon, and crescent moon. The moon's position relative to the Earth and the Sun determines these phases.


What causes the moon to change it size and what effect does this have on earth?

The moon circles the Earth on a schedule that is approximately 28 days. As it does so the relationship between the Earth and the Sun changes and sunlight shines on different parts of the moon's surface, giving it a different appearance from Earth. Just as the Moon is attracted to Earth by gravity, the Earth too is attracted to the Moon. The oceans are affected by the Moon and the water rises toward the Moon, giving us tidal variations.
