Why does an object have different weight on the moon than it does on earth?
the earth and moon have different values for the acceleration due to gravity.
Why does object have a different weight on the moon than it does on earth?
the earth and moon have different values for the acceleration due to gravity.
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).
Why is the specific gravity of mercury on the moon not the same as its specific gravity on earth?
The specific gravity of a substance depends on the acceleration due to gravity. Since the gravity is lower on the moon than on Earth, the specific gravity of mercury will be different between the two. On the moon, the weight of mercury would be less than on Earth due to the weaker gravitational pull, causing its specific gravity to be different.
Why is a persons weight different on earth than on the moon?
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.
How much less is the Moon's gravity than that of the earth's?
Since the Moon's gravity is 1/6 that of Earth, the Moon's gravity is 5/6 less than that of Earth.
Why is gravity on earth and not the moon?
There is gravity on the moon. The moon's gravity is much weaker than Earth's because the moon has less mass.
If there is no gravity on the moon why can an astronaut jump up and down as seen in the space shots?
There is gravity on the moon. There is less gravity on the moon than there is on earth, because the moon is smaller than earth. Because the Earth has the mass it has, it has the gravity it has. Because the moon has a lot less mass than the Earth its gravity is about 1/6 the amount of the Earth's gravity.
Does the earth have less gravity than the sun and moon?
Earth has weaker gravity than the sun bu stronger gravity than the moon.
The Moon's gravity is 6 times ------ than that on the Earth's surface?
The Moon's gravity is 6 times weaker than that on the Earth's surface.
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.
Does Earth have more gravity than the Moon?
Yes, Earth has more gravity than the Moon. Earth's gravity is approximately 6 times stronger than the Moon's gravity.
