Why do people have different weight on different planets or on the moon?

People have different weight on different planets or the moon due to variations in gravitational pull. Gravity is weaker on the moon and certain planets compared to Earth, resulting in a person weighing less. Weight is a measure of the gravitational force acting on an object, so it changes based on the strength of gravity.


What is defined as weight?

Weight is a force that is measured in newtons (N). It is the force of the gravitational pull on you from the planet (or even moon) you are on. This is why your weight changes when going to different planets or to the moon.
