In SI units we use the term mass rather than the more familiar term weight. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in a particular sample. The mass of a sample does not depend on its location; it is the same whether measured on Earth, on the moon, or anywhere in space. Weight is a measure of the pull of gravity on a sample and depends on where the sample is weighed.
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.
It never does because the same face of the moon is always pointed at Earth. This is due to the fact that the moon revolves around Earth at the same speed it rotates on it's axis, so Earth remains in the same relative location in the sky on the moon.
No, we do not weigh the same on the Moon as we do on Earth. Weight is the force exerted by gravity on an object, and the Moon's gravity is about 1/6th that of Earth's. This means that a person or object will weigh significantly less on the Moon than on Earth, even though their mass remains the same. For example, if you weigh 180 pounds on Earth, you would weigh about 30 pounds on the Moon.
The mass of the object remains the same on the moon as it is on Earth. However, the weight of the object will be approximately 1/6th of its weight on Earth due to the moon's lower gravity.
A person's mass remains constant regardless of location because mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, which does not change. While the weight of a person varies due to differences in gravitational force (Earth's gravity is stronger than the Moon's), their mass remains the same on both celestial bodies. Therefore, a person has the same mass on Earth as they do on the Moon.
No. You are lighter on the moon than on earth, though your mass remains unchanged.
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.
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.

Because the Earth's gravitational pull is stronger than the gravitational pull of the Moon. But your mass remains the same

Nothing happens to the weight of an object on the moon. It remains constant, at about 16% of what the same object weighs when it's on the Earth.
Five-sixths. You weigh one-sixth on the Moon of what you do here on Earth. Your mass, however, remains the same.
Yes, a person's mass remains the same on the moon as it is on Earth. However, because the gravitational pull on the moon is weaker than on Earth, a person's weight would be less on the moon compared to Earth.
True. Your mass remains the same regardless of whether you are on Earth, the Moon, or anywhere else in the universe. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and does not change with location. However, your weight would differ due to the varying gravitational forces on Earth and the Moon.
