-- Look at the formulas you use in order to calculate the mechanical advantage
of any device.
-- If the force of gravity or the weight of any part of the machine appears
in any of those formulas, then the value of the formula depends on the local
gravitational environment, and it depends on which planet the machine is on.
-- If neither of them does, then it doesn't.

What spurred the development of the space program?
The fear the the Russians would get to space and the moon first and would gain a military advantage.
If you put a moon rock on the earth would the weight of the rock change?
Yes. On Earth rock would weigh about six times what it does on the moon. The mass however will not change.
Can a werewolf change doing a full moon doind the day?
A werewolf can change at will any time of the day and during any phase of the moon. If a werewolf was forced to change or could only change during a full moon, werewolves would not be commonly heard of.
What is the mass of a 30N chicken on the moon?
The mass will not change. Its weight measured on the Moon would be 1/6th of what it is 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.
Causes of mechanical weathering on the moon?
The major cause of mechanical weathering on the moon is micrometeorites. These tiny rocks hit the moons surface and over time, change it.
Will the force of gravity being less on the moon than on earth affect the mechanical advantage of a ramp?
No. Mechanical advantage of a ramp is the ratio of base to height. That is fixed. Using a ramp on the Moon would result in less force being required in that same ratio, although the total force would be about 0.165 that of Earth because of the Moon's smaller gravity. Explained another way... If you have a 10:1 ramp that allows you to only need 10 N of force to lift a 100 N load on Earth, then that same ramp and same load on the Moon would require 1.65 N, but the object would also be only 16.5 N to start with.
What is the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane if it were on the moon instead of the earth?
Exactly the same. The reduction in gravitational force has no effect on M.A., which is a matter of simple geometry.
How would the motian of the moon change if there where no gravity?
The motion of the Moon would change from an elliptical orbit to a straight line.
If you were on the moon there would be a change in your?
weight
How does moon's shape and position change over time?
The moon's shape would change with the impact of meteor's, changing the moon's landscape.
What is the amount of matter that an object has if the object were on the moon this would not change?
That is its mass which does not change on earth, moon, or anywhere.
What spurred the development of the space program?
The fear the the Russians would get to space and the moon first and would gain a military advantage.
If you put a moon rock on the earth would the weight of the rock change?
Yes. On Earth rock would weigh about six times what it does on the moon. The mass however will not change.
How would you change new moon to make it better?
i would change to ware she falls in love with Jacob
How would the mass of an object change if it were on the moon?
The mass of an object itself does not change on the moon. However, an object's weight is less than it would be on Earth because the moon's gravity is weaker than Earth's gravity.
Would nutation change if there were no moon?
Yes. The Moon is a major cause of the nutations of the planet Earth.
