Why does the earth have a greater mass than the moon?

Because it is about the same density, and is much larger than the moon.


Would an object have the same mass density on the moon as it does on earth?

No, the mass density of an object would not be the same on the moon as on Earth. The mass of the object would remain the same, but since the gravitational pull on the moon is weaker than that on Earth, the volume of the object would decrease on the moon, resulting in a different mass density calculation compared to Earth.


Does the earth have more mass or density than the moon?

No; the Earth has over eighty times the mass of the Moon. Our Moon is overall about three fifths the density of the Earth; which is itself a scientific curiosity since this would mean the lunar core has an unusually low density.


Is the density of the Moon less than the density of the earth?

Yes. It has no iron core.


Is the moon's average density greater than the density of earth's outer layers?

No


The Moon's average density is about the same as the density of earth's layers?

You are correct! This is the reason why many scientists believe that the moon was once long ago part of the earth, that an asteroid possibly dislodged, or the roation of the earth spun off a piece of the planet.


Are the earth and its moon the same shape?

no the earth is bigger than the moon


Is the moon the same size bigger or smaller than earth?

The Moon is smaller than the Earth


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.


Earth has how many times more gravity than the moon?

The moon has about one-sixth the gravity of Earth.


How does the moon's density compare to water?

The density of water is 1000 kg m-3 The density of the moon is 3346.4 kg m-3 So the density of the moon is 3.3464 times that of water.


Is the earth more dense than the moon?

Yes, the Earth is more dense than the Moon. Earth has a higher overall density due to its larger size and composition of heavier elements, while the Moon has a lower density and is made up of lighter materials such as rock and regolith.
