travleing to da moon is awesome and i think it would be like da bomb to go dere and idont know the answer but the moon is all da cools
There is gravity on the moon! The gravity on the Moon is 1/6th that of what is observed on Earth. An object with a weight of 36 kg on Earth would weigh 1/6th that on the Moon. 1/6th of 36kg is, 6 kg. An object with a MASS of 36 kg on Earth would have the same 36 kg MASS on the moon. Mass is the amount of matter that makes up an object, whereas WEIGHT is the measurement of the force of gravity on that MASS. This is why your weight will change when visiting other planets, but your mass stays constant plant to planet!
* Mass doesn't change because of conservation of mass. * Weight changes because it is the product of mass x gravity - and gravity on the Moon is less.
Such an object's mass would not change, or it wouldn't change significantly. Its weight will be reduced, approximately by a factor of 6.
the weight reduces due to change in gravity but mass remains constant
Your weight would change on the moon because gravity is weaker there compared to Earth, so you would feel lighter. However, your mass would remain the same because it is a measure of the amount of matter in your body, which does not change.
Your weight would change, as weight is dependant upon the gravitational strength of the body that you are landing on. Your mass is essentially you as a whole it has an arbitrary value, so that weight can be calculated later on.
If earth's mass were to remain the same, your weight would be constant, i.e. it would not change.
Mass is the amount of material that you are comprised of, whereas weight is how heavy that mass is in the level of gravity where it resides.
So if you take your weight then divide it by 6.13 that is your on the moon and your mass stays the same.
An example is when an object is moved from one location to another where the gravitational pull is different. Weight is dependent on gravity, so a change in gravity would cause the weight of the object to change while its mass remains the same.
in mass no, but in weight, yes. Mass is a measure of the matter residing in an object while weight is how much gravity affects it. in a 0-G environment one would have a weight of 0% normal mass and a mass of 100% normal mass.
Yes. The weight is simply the mass, multiplied by the gravity.
