Would your mass change if you traveled from planet to planet?

No your mass would not change at all if you traveled from planet to planet. Mass is the amount of space an object takes up. Since different planets have different levels of gravity pushing down on you then your weight would change but unless for any reason you lost/gained weight or grown any taller/shorter your mass would not change traveling planet to planet.


How would weight change for an object going to a planet with less gravitational force than earth?

Weight decreases as gravity decreases.


Would your weight be the same on mercury?

no........ the weight is determined by the gravitational pull on any object gravitational pull of different planet is different. therefore, the weight changes


How would your weight change on the surface of an Earth-sized planet whose mass was greater that Earth's?

it would change becausethere would be no gravity so u would weight less.and on planets like jupitar or uranis..its a gas planet so you wouldn't be able to land.


How would your weight change on the surface of an earth sized planet whose mass was greater the earths Why.?

Your weight is directly proportional to the mass and gravity of the planet, if the planet has a greater gravity and mass, you will weigh more.

When you travel from the planet Earth to another place, such as the International Space Station or the moon, your mass would remain the same but your weight would change.

What would the mass of an astronaut with the weight of 80 kg be on a planet?

That depends on the planet. Gravitation on different planets varies. On planet Earth, you multiply by 9.8; the result is in Newtons.


How would your weight change on the surface of an Earth-sized planet whose mass were greater than Earth's?

If the planet were the same size as Earth but its mass were some percent greater than Earth's mass, then your weight there would be that same percent greater than it is on Earth. A bathroom scale on that planet might not read exactly the number that I have described ... your apparent weight, as displayed by a bathroom scale, would also be influenced somewhat by the planet's rate of rotation, which might be something different from 15° per Earth-hour of time.
