What is the moon and size in relation to earth and actual size?
The moon is 1/4 the diameter of the Earth
What is the size difference of the earth and the moon?
In rough rounded figures . . . -- The moon's diameter is 27.3% the size of the Earth's diameter. -- That makes the moon's surface area 7.5% the size of Earth's surface area. -- And it makes the moon's volume 2% the size of the Earth's volume. -- The moon's mass is 1.23% the size of the Earth's mass. (When we notice that the moon has 2% of Earth's volume but only 1.23% its mass, we realize immediately that the moon's average density is only 60% of the Earth's average density.)
Why does moon appear smaller from earth?
because the moon is one quarter size of the earth.
How is the size and mass of the moon different from the earth's size and mass?
Earth's diameter about 7925 miles. Moon's diameter about 2160 miles. The diameter of the Moon is 3,474 km and the diameter of the Earth is 12,742 km. This makes the Moon approximately 27% the size of the Earth. The mass of the Moon is 7.347 x 1022 kg and the mass of the Earth is 5.97x 1024 kg. The mass of the Moon is only 1.2% of the mass of the Earth.
Is the earth larger than the moon?
yes the moon is only about one-fourth the size of earth
Is the moon twice the size of earth?
No
Is the moon about twice the size of earth?
No. The moon is about one-fourth the diameter and has about 2% of the mass as that of the Earth. See the related link for more information.
Is the moon twice as big as the earth?
No. The moon is about 1/4 the diameter of Earth.
Is the moon about the same size as Mars?
Mars is about twice as big as the Moon.
What is the moon and size in relation to earth and actual size?
The moon is 1/4 the diameter of the Earth
Is mercury or the moon closer to earth's size?
Mercury is larger than the moon and so is closer in size to Earth than the moon is. It should be noted that Mercury is closer in size to the moon than it is to Earth.
How are the size and mass of the moon different for that of the earth?
Size: The Moon has about 1/4 of the diameter of Earth. Mass: The Moon has about 1/81 of the mass of Earth.
Gravity on the moon is twice bigger then gravity on earth?
False. Gravity on the moon is 1/6 that of Earth.
What would happen to the Earth's tides if the moon was twice the size as it is now?
What matters heres is the Moon's mass, as well as its distance. With a more massive Moon (and in the same orbit), the tides would of course be stronger.
How big is the earth to the moon?
The moon is about 1/4th the size of the Earth.
How much size is the moon from the earth?
Moon = 1/4 of Earth
What is the size difference of the earth and the moon?
