the force of gravity on the moon is much weaker than that of earth. that means that you are getting pulled down more on earth than you are on the moon resulting in a lighter weight.
About 1/6 of your weight on earth. See many related answers, all of which say the same, but with various extra information.
What else can I help you with?
Would your weight change if you went on the moon?
Good question. Yes, your weight would change, but your mass would not. People often confuse weight with mass.If your mass is 50kg, then your weight on Earth is 500N - weight is a force, and it is equal to mass x acceleration due to gravity.Because the force of gravity on the moon is much less, about 1/6 of that on Earth, your weight would be about 80N. Your mass, however, would still be 50kg.
How would your mass change if you went from the earth to the moon?
It wouldn't. Your weight would change, because it is equal to mass times acceleration, and the acceleration of gravity on the moon is about 1/6th that of Earth's, so you would weight about 1/6th as much on the moon as on the Earth. But mass is constant, regardless of where you are. Mass does increase with increased speed, however, according to Einstein's Theory of Relativity.
What would happen to your weight if you went to the moon?
On the moon as the gravity is less you will only weigh 1/6th of your natural weight there.
Would your weight change if you went on a plane?
actually no it wouldn't because if your on a plane it just means you actually gain some pounds.
Why are you lighter on the moon than on earth?
Gravity on the moon is 1/6 of the gravity on Earth. Weight is actually measuring the force of something (when you drop from a plane),and therefore relies on the gravity that makes you fall from the plane. When you use the term 'weight' you're referring to mass, which measures how much matter an object takes up. If you went to a different planet, your mass would stay the same, because you're still the same size, but you're weight would change because the gravity has changed.
If you weigh 100kg and went to the moon which has 16 the gravity of earth would your weight change?
yes it would change
Why would your weight would change if you went to the moon but your mass would not?
* 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.
How would your weight and mass change if you went to the moon?
If you measured your mass and your weight and then went to the moon, you would find that your mass had not changed, and your weight had become about 83 percent less.
Why your weight would change if you went to the moon but your mass would not?
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.
How does mass effect an objects weight?
It doesn't really. mass is what is inside something. For example, if you went to the moon, you wouldn't lose anything therefore, your mass would not change. But if you went to the moon, your weight would go down. This is because there is a much smaller gravitational pull on the moon than the earth does. So, basically the weight of something is decided by how powerful the gravitational pull is on you.

Would a person mass or weight change if that person left the earth and went to the moon?
your mass stays the same. yoir WIEGHT changes

If i was 93 pounds and went to space how much would i weight?
While you're in the spaceship, your weight would change several times, depending on the acceleration of the ship at the moment. At the times when the rocket engines aren't firing and the ship is coasting, your weight is zero. When you arrived at the place where you're going, your weight would depend on what place that is. If you went to the moon, you'd weigh about 15.3 pounds there.
How your weight on earth would change if you were on the moon?
Your weight on the moon is about 16.55% of your weight on Earth. If you weigh 200 pounds on Earth, then you'll weigh 33.1 pounds on the moon. Plus, of course, your space suit and all the rest of the gear you have to wear in order to survive on the moon.
How would your weight change if you went from the Earth to the moon?
Your would weigh 1/6th as much as you do here on mother Earth. The how is our moons' mass, and therefore its' gravity, is about 1/6 as much as the Earths'. Its' gravity well is not as deep as the Earths.
