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 astronauts weigh less on the Moon than on the Earth?
Astronauts weigh less on the Moon than on Earth because the Moon has less mass and gravity than Earth. The gravitational force on the Moon is about 1/6th that of Earth, so objects (including astronauts) weigh less on the Moon due to this weaker gravity.
Do humans weigh the same on the Moon and the Earth?
No, humans weigh less on the Moon than on Earth because the Moon has less gravity. The gravitational force on the Moon is about 1/6th of the gravitational force on Earth, so a person would weigh less on the Moon compared to Earth.
Why does everything weigh less on the moon?
the moon's gravitational pull is far less than that of earth's
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.
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.
Will you have more or less weight on the moon than on earth?
You will have less weight on the Moon than on Earth (83.3% less), but your mass will remain unaffected. If you weigh 150lbs on Earth, then you would weigh only 26.55lbs on the Moon.
Why is your weight different on the moon?
Weight is mass times gravity, and there is less gravity on the moon, therefore you weigh less on the moon.
Why do men weigh less on the moon?
Men weigh less on the moon because the moon's gravitational pull is weaker than Earth's. The gravitational force depends on the mass of the celestial body, so with the moon being smaller than Earth, there is less gravitational force pulling objects towards its surface.
Where would you weigh the least on the Moon or on Venus?
On the Moon, because it has less gravity.
Would a person weigh less in the moon?
yes
Would a person weigh less on Pluto or the Moon?
A person would weigh less on the Moon compared to Pluto because the Moon has less mass and weaker gravity than Pluto. The gravitational pull on Pluto is stronger due to its larger mass, causing a person to weigh more on Pluto than on the Moon.
