How your weight on earth would change if you were on the moon?

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

Your weight would go down by a 1/6th because the Moon is a 1/6th of the Earth's mass.

E.g: If you weighed 100 pounds on Earth then you would be only about 16 pounds on the moon. Think how high you could jump!

To find out what your weight would be take you weight (in pounds) and divide by six!

For mass, however, your mass would always be the same! Your now thinking: "Hang on a second, why?!" Well, the thing to remember about mass is that it's always constant and if your on Earth, Mars, the Moon, or anywhere, it'll always be the same.

Answer 3

On The Moon, Whatever Weight You Are, You Will Be One-Sixth Of Your Earth Weight.

E.G. I Weigh 60kg On Earth. On The Moon I Weigh 10kg

===========================================

Another contributor agonized:

That answer was going along so nicely, until suddenly it went off the cliff.

-- Whatever your earth weight is, multiply that number by 0.16 to find your weight on the moon.

If you weigh 100 pounds on earth, you'll weigh 16.3 pounds on the moon.

-- Whatever your moon weight is, multiply that number by 6.13 to find your earth weight.

If you weigh 25 pounds on the moon, you'll weigh 153 pounds on earth.

-- "Kg" is a unit of mass, not weight. If your mass is 60 kg, then your mass is 60 kg,

regardless of where you are ... on earth, on the moon, or in space on the way from

one to the other. Your mass doesn't change.

Answer 4

Yes, it would change. It would change because in space there is no gravity and your balance would be lesser.
