Lengths, distances, areas, volumes, quantities, times, velocities, speeds, masses, and accelerations
all measure exactly the same on the moon as they do on earth.
Weights of objects are different on the moon, because the weight of an object is another word for the gravitational pull on a object. The Gravitational pull of an object is dependent on two things, the mass of the object (which remains the same) and the distance from the center to the Earth (Which changes drastically).
A spring scale would give a different result on the moon than on Earth when measuring the same object due to the difference in gravity. The gravitational pull on the moon is about 1/6th of that on Earth, so the object would weigh less on the moon compared to Earth, affecting the measurement on the spring scale.
The moon is much more smaller than the Earth.
the earth and moon have different values for the acceleration due to gravity.
the earth and moon have different values for the acceleration due to gravity.
Your wight on the moon would be about one sixth of what it is on Earth.
The strength of gravity of an object is proportional to its mass. The moon has much less mass than earth does.
the gravitational force of the earth is much stronger then on the moon. Also, a person is not "lighter". their mass is the same, it is the weight of the person. Weight is a unit of measurement. You are lighter on the moon than on earth because there is 1/6 less gravity.
The gravity is less on the Moon, because the Moon is smaller than earth; it has less mass, and therefore "sucks" less than the earth. Weight is gravity times mass, you have the same mass on Earth and on the Moon (and in space), but weigh less on the moon.
Gravity on the moon is one-sixth of that on Earth, so you will exert less force on the moon.
The weight of an apple would be different on Earth compared to the Moon due to the difference in gravitational pull. Specifically, the apple would weigh less on the Moon than on Earth because the Moon's gravitational force is about one-sixth that of Earth's.
