the mass of an object is the same, no matter where it is.
A 1 pound bag on the moon contains more apples. weight equals mass× gravitational aceleration. since the acceleration on earth is nearly 6 time the acceleration of the moon, thus if both bags have the same weight and the apples' mass on earth is x then there mass on moon is 6x
one kilogram.
No. The mass of the moon is a fraction of the earth's mass.
The mass of the chicken would remain the same on the moon as it is on Earth, regardless of the difference in gravitational pull. So, if the chicken weighs 2 kilograms on Earth, it would also weigh 2 kilograms on the moon.
No, they do not have the same mass. The moon has much less mass than Earth.
The mass is 1 kilogram anywhere. The mass doesn't change.The weight of 1 kilogram is 9.8 newtons (2.205 pounds) on earth,and 1.6 newtons (5.8 ounces) on the moon.
A kilogram (mass) on the moon is still a kilogram (mass)A kilogram (referred to as its weight) is about 1/6 of it's Earth weight or 160 g (approx)Aside: In common usage we talk about an object having a weight, not a mass (e.g. Your driver's license states your weight). In science a kilogram is a unit of mass. Weight is what we perceive when we try to lift that mass - it is the force of gravity pulling the kilogram mass to the Earth. It gets a bit confusing when you are at Earth's surface because a the kilogram mass has a numerically kilogram of force (usually referred to as weight) attracting it downwards.
The weight of 1 kilogram of iron on Earth is greater than the weight of 1 kilogram of iron on the Moon. This is because weight depends on the gravitational pull of the celestial body, and Earth has a stronger gravitational force than the Moon.
For astronomical objects, it is more appropriate to talk about the mass of an object, not about its weight. The Moon has a mass of 7.35 x 1022 kilogram, that is about 1.2% of Earth's mass.
The mass on the Moon is still seventy kilograms (the same as on Earth) because mass is an inherent property of matter. However the 70 kilogram person would weigh 11.6 kilograms on the Moon because weight depends on gravity and the Moon's gravity is 0.1654 of that of the Earth.
No. It's mass would be slightly less.
A 1 pound bag on the moon contains more apples. weight equals mass× gravitational aceleration. since the acceleration on earth is nearly 6 time the acceleration of the moon, thus if both bags have the same weight and the apples' mass on earth is x then there mass on moon is 6x
On Earth, 1 kilogram of mass weighs 2.205 pounds. On the moon, the same kilogram weighs 0.353 pound. We'll let you figure it out from there.
