Yes, the mass would be constant but the weight would be different.
The weight of an object would change on the moon because weight is defined as the downward pull of an object due to gravity. Since mass is not dependent on gravity, the mass of an object would stay the same no matter where you are.

∙ 15y agoNo, an object is lighter on the moon than on the earth.
For example, Astronaut suits weigh over 50kg (100lbs) on earth, but they're like normal clothes on the moon. Yes it most certainly does! It says that in my fifth grade science book right here it says, "An astronaut weighs less on the moon than on earth. However, the astronaut has the same mass on the moon than on the earth."

∙ 13y agoIt's not even close. Earth has about 81 times the mass of the Moon, and six times the gravity; which is why you'd only weigh one-sixth as much as what you do here.

∙ 14y agoNo. The mass is the same regardless of where you take it. The weight
of that mass is generally different on different planets.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agothey weight less because there is less gravity on the moon than on earth...
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoYes. The Moon's mass is only about 1.23% of Earth's mass. You would need more than 80 Moons to equal the Earth's mass.

∙ 14y agoYes, your weight is what changes.

Does the earth and the moon have the same amount of mass?
No, they do not have the same mass. The moon has much less mass than Earth.
How does the size and mass of the moon different from earth?
The mass on the moon and the earth is the same but the weight changes.
What is the mass of a hammer on the moon?
The mass of a hammer on the Moon is the same as the mass of that same hammer on Earth - or in space, or anywhere else.
How will weight and mass be affected while on the moon and on earth?
The mass will be the same on the moon, as well as on earth. But more weight will be gained on earth than moon because there is more gravitational force on earth than on moon. Mass stays the same because the amount of matter in the object will not change simply by going to the moon.
What is mass of package on the moon in kg if package weighs 108N on earth?
Calculate the mass on Earth (gravity = 9.8), and assume that the mass on the Moon will be the same.
Does the earth and the moon have the same amount of mass?
No, they do not have the same mass. The moon has much less mass than Earth.
How does the size and mass of the moon different from earth?
The mass on the moon and the earth is the same but the weight changes.
What is the mass of a hammer on the moon?
The mass of a hammer on the Moon is the same as the mass of that same hammer on Earth - or in space, or anywhere else.
Why does everything has the same mass on earth and the moon but everything weighs more on earth that it does on the moon?
Mass doesn't depend on gravity whereas weight does. And moon has gravity less than earth so a body weighs less on moon as compared to its weight on earth. But mass remains same.
Does the earth and the moon have about the same mass?
The moon has much less mass than the Earth.No, the earth and the moon do not have the same mass. While both are very large, the moon is only 1/81st the weight of earth, with a weight of 7.34 x 10^22 kilograms.
How will weight and mass be affected while on the moon and on earth?
The mass will be the same on the moon, as well as on earth. But more weight will be gained on earth than moon because there is more gravitational force on earth than on moon. Mass stays the same because the amount of matter in the object will not change simply by going to the moon.
What is mass of package on the moon in kg if package weighs 108N on earth?
Calculate the mass on Earth (gravity = 9.8), and assume that the mass on the Moon will be the same.
Is iron mass on the moon same as earth?
Mass is a constant everywhere in the universe. The weight on the moon is about one sixth of the weight on the earth, because the mass of the moon is about one sixth of the mass of the earth reducing the force of gravity.
Do Earth and the moon have the same mass?
No. Earth is about 80 times more massive than the moon.
Why will a person's mass never change whether they are on earth or on the moon?
Because mass is not the same as weight. Weight is mass times gravity so your weight will change if you are on the earth or moon but your mass will stay the same.
Why a person has a heavier mass on earth than on the moon?
He hasn't. The mass is the same, but the graviational pull from the Earth is stronger than that from the moon.
Is the gravitational force of earth and moon the same?
No, essentially mass = gravity the earths mass is roughly 81 * that of the moon, if you stood at the same distance from both, the force on you from the earth would be 81 * that of the moon.
