Volume- as in how much space something occupies- does not change. Neither does mass. However, WEIGHT is much less on the moon.

Earth's volume is how many times greater than the Moon's?

The volume of the Earth is 50 times greater than the volume of the Moon.


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.)


How does the volume of the moon compare to that of Earth?

Well, isn't that just the loveliest question! The moon's volume is about 2% of Earth's volume. It may be smaller, but oh my, it plays such a special role in our sky, adding wonder and peaceful vibes to our nights.


Would an object have the same mass density on the moon as it does on earth?

No, the mass density of an object would not be the same on the moon as on Earth. The mass of the object would remain the same, but since the gravitational pull on the moon is weaker than that on Earth, the volume of the object would decrease on the moon, resulting in a different mass density calculation compared to Earth.


Why does the the moon appear as different shapes as it orbits the earth?

The changing shapes of the moon as it orbits the Earth are due to its position relative to the Sun and the Earth. As the moon orbits the Earth, the amount of sunlight that illuminates the side of the moon facing us changes, causing different portions of the moon to be visible at different times. This creates the different phases of the moon that we observe from Earth.

Which ocean on earth has the same volume as the moon?

The ratio of the earth's volume to that of the moon is right close to 50. In other words, the moon is 1/50th of the volume of the earth. Please refer to the link below.

Earth has about 50 times the volume of the Moon (and 81 times the mass of the Moon).


How is the moon larger than the earth?

-- The earth's diameter (distance through the center) is about 3.7 times the moon's diameter. -- The earth's surface area is about 13.5 times the moon's surface area. -- The earth's volume is about 49.5 times the moon's volume. -- The earth's mass is about 82 times the moon's mass.


How many of Earth's moon can fit inside Jupiter?

Jupiter has a planetary volume of 1321 times that of the Earth. The Moon has a volume 0.020 times that of the earth. so the volume of Jupiter is 66,050 times the volume of the earth's Moon.If you ignore the spaces left vacant by the spherical shape of the moon, you would fit 66,050 Earth moons inside Jupiter; considerably fewer if you are really packing spheres the size of Earth's moon within a sphere of Jupiter's volume.


Is the moon 1.80th of earth?

If you mean 1/80, that would refer to the Moon's mass - it is about 1/80. of the Earth's mass. The Moon's diameter, on the other hand, is about 1/4 of the Earth's diameter; this would make the Moon's volume about 1/64 (1/4 cubed) of the Earth's volume.

Earth has a radius of 6371 kilometers and the moon has a radius of 1737 kilometers. How many times larger is eath's volume than the moon's volume?

To find how many times larger Earth's volume is than the Moon's, we can use the formula for the volume of a sphere: ( V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 ). Calculating the volumes, Earth's volume is approximately ( 1.08321 \times 10^{12} ) cubic kilometers, and the Moon's volume is about ( 2.197 \times 10^{10} ) cubic kilometers. Dividing these values gives us that Earth's volume is roughly 49.1 times larger than the Moon's volume.


What fraction of the size of the earth is the moon?

The Moon is 1/4 of Earth's diameter, 1/50 of Earth's volume, and 1/80 of Earth's mass.
