Mass and weight are two separate things. Mass is how much an object contains. Weight is how the mass is affected by gravity. To answer your question, no, it would not.

What is your weight on earth if your weight on the moon is 36kg?
Kilogram is a unit of mass, not of weight. If you have a mass of 36 kilograms on the moon, then you would also have a mass of 36 kilograms on Earth.

Would your weight and mass change if you were on the moon?
Your mass would be the same on the moon as it is on Earth. Your weight on the moon would be about 16% of what it is on Earth.
Will a solid have the same mass on the moon?
Yes, a solid would have the same mass on the moon as it would on earth. An object's mass is independent of the force of gravity, so its mass would remain the same even in the absence of gravity (e.g. on a spaceship). What would change is the weight, which is measured with mass in proportion to gravity.
If you weigh thirty four kg on earth how much would you weigh on the moon?
Kilogram is a unit of mass, not of weight. If you had a mass of 34 kg. on Earth, then you would also have a mass of 34 kg. on the Moon. Your weight on Earth would be about 340 Newton; on the Moon, 1/6 of this, or about 57 Newton.Kilogram is a unit of mass, not of weight.

Why is mass constant but weight can change?
weight=mass*gravitational constant Therefore, one's weight on the Moon would be different than on Earth, but his mass on both the Moon and the Earth would be the same.
How would you present weight change if earth had twice the mass it does now?
If Earth had the same size but twice the mass you would weight twice as much
Would your weight increase if mass of earth increased?
Yes. Gravity is related to mass. Increase the mass of the earth, and its gravity--and thus your weight--will increase.
If you were on earth would you be heavier or lighter than you are on the moon?
Your weight on moon would be one-sixth of what your weight is on earth. The reason is because the mass of the moon is smaller as compared to the mass of earth, and your weight depends on the mass of the body you're walking on.
An astrounaut has a mass of 200kg.what is the weight on earth and on the moon?
If you weighed 200kg on Earth you would weigh 33.2kg on the Moon. Your mass would stay the same.on earth the mass is equal to the weight.on the moon the weight will be inferior to the mass due to the smaller mass of the moon inducing less gravitational pull
Would your weight be greater if earth gained mass?
Yes your weight would be greater.
What is the mass of a pumpkin on Earth?
The mass of a pumpkin on Earth is the same as its mass on the moon, on Mars, or anywhere else. Its mass is the same as its weight would be on Earth.
What would your weight and mass be if your were on the moon?
Your mass is the same wherever you go. Your weight on the moon is about 16.5% of what it is on Earth.
How much would you weigh on jupiter compared to earth?
weight on jupiter=((mass of jupiter)*(Radius of earth)2/(mass of earth)*(Radius of jupiter)2)*weight on earth
How would your weight change on the surface of a earth size planet who's mass is greater than the earth?
Your weight would increase in direct proportion to that planet's mass.
Would your weight change if you went on the moon?
Good question. Yes, your weight would change, but your mass would not. People often confuse weight with mass.If your mass is 50kg, then your weight on Earth is 500N - weight is a force, and it is equal to mass x acceleration due to gravity.Because the force of gravity on the moon is much less, about 1/6 of that on Earth, your weight would be about 80N. Your mass, however, would still be 50kg.
Would your mass and weight be different on mars than on earth?
Your mass would be the same but your weight would decrease to 38% of what it is on earth. If you weigh 100 pounds on earth you would weigh 38 pounds on Mars. Mass is the same no matter where you are. Mass is basically the amount of matter an object has. Your rest MASS is constant anywhere in the Universe. Your weight will differ based on the Gravitational Field you are in. Because the gravitational Field on Earth would be different than that of Mars, you weight on Mars will be different than on Earth.
How would your mass and weight differ on the moon?
-- Your mass doesn't change, no matter where you are. -- Your weight on the moon is 16.5% of what it is on Earth.
What would happen to your mass if the earth's mass doubled?
the earth would be bigger...thats all. Your mass would not change, but your weight would.
Is mass and weight lighter on an asteroid?
An object from Earth would have the same mass, but a much smaller weight on an asteroid. Weight depends on gravity, but mass doesn't.
Will a solid with a mass of 180g weigh the same on the moon?
180 grams of mass ... liquid, solid, gas, whatever ... weighs about 6.35 ounces on Earth and about 1.05 ounces on the surface of the moon. Any mass on the moon weighs 16.55% of its Earth weight.
Would your mass be less on the moon or more?
Your mass never changes (your weight would be one sixth of your earth weight on the moon though)
Why would your weight change if you orbited earth in a space shuttle but mass would not?
mass is the actual amount of matter weight is just how much mass it appears to with your body
Weight and mass relationship?
Mass is the amount of matter in an object. Weight is the force of gravity acting on the mass of an object. On Earth these are essentially the same, mass is defined by how much you weigh on Earth. If, however, you went to the Moon where gravity is 1/6th that of the Earth, you would have 1/6th the Weight you have on Earth but the same amount of Mass.
Is this sentence true or false on the moon your mass would be less than it is on earth but your weight would be the same?
False: Your mass would be the same but your weight would be less.
