With its smaller mass, the Moon exerts only about 1/6 the gravity as the Earth, so objects would weigh just one-sixth of their Earth weight on the lunar surface. This is why the astronauts were able to float up off the surface as they walked there, even in their heavy spacesuits.
The Earth weighs 6 times more than its' moon.
The moon is the moon. How much of the illuminated portion we can see from Earth is completely irrelevant to its mass.
An astronaut can carry more massive equipment on the moon than on Earth because the moon has lower gravity compared to Earth. This means there is less gravitational force pulling down on the equipment, making it easier to lift and carry heavier loads.
no, the Earth is many times heavier
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.
He hasn't. The mass is the same, but the graviational pull from the Earth is stronger than that from the moon.
Because the earth is much more heavier than the moon.
A trick question, because there is nothing that is ACTUALLY heavier on the Moon than on Earth, but because there is no atmosphere, nothing can "float" on the Moon. So a hot air balloon or any similar device that depends on buoyancy might be measured to have a lower weight on the Earth than on the Moon.

Earth is a about 6 times more massive than the moon (Has more density per volume, since it's technically weightless in space) Gravity is proportional to how large a planet or moon is, so the object will be heavier on earth (a larger planet) than on the moon (a small body)
An object will weigh approximately 6 times HEAVIER on earth than it would on the moon.
Heavier than what, the sun????
Objects are heavier on Earth than on the Moon due to the difference in gravitational pull between the two. Earth's gravity is stronger than the Moon's, causing objects to weigh more on Earth. Gravity is a force that pulls objects towards the center of the celestial body, and the larger the body, the stronger the gravitational force.

Earth contains more metal than the Moon because Earth's higher gravity caused heavier materials like metals to sink towards its core during its formation. The Moon, being smaller with weaker gravity, was not able to retain as much metal in its composition.
