Well technically mass is a measure of how much matter exists within a particular object and won't change even if you are on the moon. Therefore the mass of a 100 kg block will be 100 kg on the moon. If this is a school question then I would say it is a trick question and the answer is 100 kg
recheck the wording and make sure it says mass and not weight.
Weight is a measure that is dependent on gravitational forces and a 100 kg block will have a weight of 16.6 kg on the moon
This difference in weight is due to the fact that the moon is many times smaller than the Earth and therefore the moon has less mass than the Earth. Gravitational force increases with mass, so the moon has less gravitational attraction to the block than the Earth would.
What else can I help you with?
What is the weight of 100kg man on moon?
The weight of a 100kg man on the moon would be approximately 16.5kg, because the moon's gravity is about 1/6th of Earth's gravity.
If a man has a mass of 100kg on earth what will his mass on the moon be?
The question is ill-posed. Weight is mesured in Newtons (N) as it's a force, it's mass is measured in kg. There are ctually two questions mixed together here. Let's answer both: 1) If an astronaut has a mass of 100kg on earth what is his mass on the moon? 100kg - put him on a frictionless surface and try and accelerate him, it's just has hard on the moon as on earth (or anywhere else for that matter). 2) If an astronaut weighs 981N on the surface of the earth (as an astronaut of mass 100kg would) how much does he weigh on the moon? Surface gravity on the earth is 9.81m/s/s which is how we end up with the 100kg astronaut weighing 981N. On the moon surface gravity is only 1.62m/s/s so the same astronaut would weigh 162N - about 1 sixth that on earth.
How does the weight of a space probe vary en route from the earth to moon.would its mass change?
Well mass is unchanging, so lets say its 100kg (rough estimate), it would still be 100kg on earth, it will still be 100kg in Space and on the Moon. Weight however will change. To workout weight you use this equation --> WEIGHT = GRAVITY x MASS, so Earth has a gravitational pull of 10N/kg which would mean its weight on earth was 1000N. Space has no gravitational pull, so it would weigh nothing in Space. And the moon has a gravitational pull of about 1.7N/kg, so it would weigh 170N on the Moon! Hope this helped
When the moon completely block out light from the sun?
A Solar Eclipse
Does the earth block the moon?
It can. It's called a lunar eclipse.

The weight of a 100kg man on the moon would be approximately 16.5kg, because the moon's gravity is about 1/6th of Earth's gravity.
If you lived on the moon how much would you weigh?
If you weighed 100kg on Earth, you would weigh 13.2kg on the Moon
If you weigh 100kg and went to the moon which has 16 the gravity of earth would your weight change?
yes it would change
How much does 100kg weigh?
That depends on where it is. For example . . . -- On Earth, it weighs 220.46 pounds -- On the moon, it weighs 36.485 pounds . . . etc.

Why does mas decreases when you travel to the moon?
the mass changes because there no gravity in space

Why does the earth not block the sun from reaching the moon during a full moon?
The earth does not block the sun during *most* full moons because it is not *directly* between the sun and moon. If the earth does block the sun from the moon, then the earth must be directly between the sun and moon. This will happen at full moon, since the three must be in a line, and you would see the full moon, then the eclipse, then the moon fully illuminated again.
