Why is the weight of an object different on Earth and the moon even though the object's mass is the same in both places?
Weight depends on acceleration due to gravity and similarly acceleration due gravity depends on force of gravity. The force of gravity of moon is 6times less than that of earth and due to this their is variation in acceleration due to gravith between the earth and the moon. As there is difference in acceleration due to gravity between the earth and moon, the magnitude of weight also vary . And next most important thing to keep on mind is that mass is independent of gravity so it does not change anywhere ....
Is acceleration the same in moon and in earth?
No. Acceleration due to gravity on the moon is roughly 1/6 of that on Earth.
Why is acceleration due to gravity less on moon?
Acceleration due to gravity is less on the Moon compared to Earth because the Moon has less mass than Earth. The force of gravity is directly proportional to the mass of the celestial body, so a smaller mass like the Moon results in weaker gravity. This causes objects to fall more slowly on the Moon than on Earth.
What is mass of package on the moon in kg if package weighs 108N on earth?
To find the mass of the package on the moon, you can use the equation: weight = mass * acceleration due to gravity. The acceleration due to gravity on the moon is about 1/6th that of Earth's. So, if the package weighs 108N on Earth, its mass on the moon would be about 18 kg.
How much gravity is there on the moon compared to the earth?
About a 1/6 of earth gravity. 1.63 m/s^2 in gravitational acceleration

Is acceleration the same in moon and in earth?
No. Acceleration due to gravity on the moon is roughly 1/6 of that on Earth.
Is there 0 gravity on the moon?
No. The rate of acceleration due to gravity on the Moon is 1.6249 m/s2 which is 16.7% of that on Earth. Things on the Moon weigh 16.7% of what they would on Earth.
How much more is the gravitational force of the earth than the moon?
The acceleration of gravity on the moon is about 1/6th the acceleration of gravity on earth. Any mass on the earth's surface feels about 6 times the downward force that it would feel on the surface of the moon.
What is the gravity pull on your moon?
The acceleration of gravity on the surface of the moon is 1.623 m/s2 . (9.807 m/s2 on Earth)
Why does an object have different weight on the moon than it does on earth?
the earth and moon have different values for the acceleration due to gravity.
Why does object have a different weight on the moon than it does on earth?
the earth and moon have different values for the acceleration due to gravity.
How do you get he answer what fraction of the gravity is the Moon's?
-- On line or in a book, look up the acceleration due to gravity on the Earth. -- On line or in a book, look up the acceleration due to gravity on the Moon. -- Divide the Moon's number by the Earth's number. The answer is the fraction of Earth's gravity that you'll encounter on the moon. -- You can do the same for every planet in the solar system, plus several moons and asteroids.

Why is it that the earth is not affected by the Moon's gravity?
Earth is affected by the moon's gravity. The moon's gravity exerts just as much force on Earth as Earth's gravity does on the moon, but since Earth is far more massive, it undergoes far less acceleration.
