The surface pressure of the moon is 10E-7 Pa.
Or in kPa 10E-10. (0.0000000001)
This pressure is so small because the moon has virtually no atmosphere. Therefore very little pressure. (This can be contrasted to the average sea-level pressure of Earth at 101325 Pa or 101.325 kPa)
The air pressure on the moon is essentially zero. The moon has an extremely thin atmosphere, so there is almost no pressure exerted by the gases present there. This lack of atmosphere is one reason why the moon has such extreme temperature variations between day and night.
Water on the surface of the moon will rapidly turn to water vapor as there is no atmospheric pressure on the moon. The vapor will then escape the moon's gravity which is much weaker than the gravity on Earth.
The outer surface of the moon is called the crust.
You can't breathe on the surface of the moon because it has no atmosphere to sustain life. The lack of oxygen and the extremely low air pressure makes it impossible for humans to breathe without proper life support systems.
because the person is on the moon
The air pressure on the moon is essentially zero. The moon has an extremely thin atmosphere, so there is almost no pressure exerted by the gases present there. This lack of atmosphere is one reason why the moon has such extreme temperature variations between day and night.
Low surface pressure and a new moon are the main reasons
Water on the surface of the moon will rapidly turn to water vapor as there is no atmospheric pressure on the moon. The vapor will then escape the moon's gravity which is much weaker than the gravity on Earth.
The outer surface of the moon is called the crust.
No
The moon is much smaller than the Earth and has a weaker gravitational field. As a result, gas on the lunar surface leaks away into space, rather than forming an atmosphere. And with no atmosphere, there can be no barometric pressure.
They touched some lunar samples with bare hands, but not the moon itself. They did walk on the moon's surface, but they were in full pressure suits the entire time they were outside the Lunar Module.
The moon has no air pressure because the moon has no air.
The moon's surface is regolith (ground up rock).
The moon has a solid (terrestrial) surface.
To calculate the pressure exerted on a surface, the force normal to the surface is divided by the surface area. The formula for pressure is pressure = force / area.
Venus has atmospheric pressures at its surface that are roughly comparable to those at Earth's surface, around 92 times the pressure we experience here on Earth. This high pressure is due to Venus' thick atmosphere composed mostly of carbon dioxide.
