The moon has less mass than the Earth, so it has less gravity. This is why you're lighter on the moon.
Weight is mass times gravity, and there is less gravity on the moon, therefore you weigh less on the moon.
You weigh less on the moon compared to Earth because the moon has less mass and gravity. The gravitational pull on the moon is about 1/6th of that on Earth, so your weight appears to be lighter on the moon.
because there is less gravity on the moon
You weight on the moon is 16.5% of what your weight is on Earth.
Because the gravity of the moon is less, and does not pull on things as strongly as the Earth does (moon is smaller)
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.
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.
No- their weight is less, but mass is not changed.
The weight of a body is less on the Moon than on Earth because the Moon has less mass than Earth, causing weaker gravitational pull. Weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object, so lower gravity on the Moon results in less weight for objects.
On the Moon one weighs one-sixth the weight on Earth.
