Any object weighs more on the moon than it does on an asteroid or comet,
but less than it weighs on earth ... only about 16% of its earthly weight.
You would weigh way less on the moon. For example. If you weighed 100 pounds on Earth, you would weigh 16.6 pounds on the moon.
Gravity is different on the earth than it is on the moon. An object will weigh more on Earth since there is more gravitational pull on the object. However, mass isn't dependent on gravity, and in physics, the formula for Weight is W = ma. This means weight is dependent on the acceleration that an object has in a downward direction, and in this case, we would be focusing on gravitational acceleration that is applied to the object.
It weighs more on the earth. The moon is much less massive than earth, so it attracts objects with a smaller force.
The reason we weigh the amount we do is because the gravity is as strong as it is. However on the moon the gravity is not as strong, therefore we weigh less.
It would weigh less on the Moon and more on the Sun.
No. Any object on the moon would weigh about a sixth of what it does on Earth.
The planet Earth has more gravitation pull than its moon. Therefore the weight on earth is more than that on the moon. The mass though does not change.
the amount of gravity on earth versus the moon
You would weigh about 1/6 as much on the moon as you weigh on earth if you were not wearing heavy equipment. I would weigh about 560 ounces on the moon.
You would weigh way less on the moon. For example. If you weighed 100 pounds on Earth, you would weigh 16.6 pounds on the moon.
Yes, objects on the moon would weigh six times less, but keep in mind that the objects mass stays the same.

More gravity.
Earth is a about 6 times more massive than the moon (Has more density per volume, since it's technically weightless in space) Gravity is proportional to how large a planet or moon is, so the object will be heavier on earth (a larger planet) than on the moon (a small body)
