The gravitational force acting on you when you stand on the moon is about 1/6 as strong as when you're standing on the earth. So let's say ... just for an example because I don't know you ... let's just say for a moment that you weigh 180 pounds. If you carry your bathroom scale with you next time you go to the moon, and then once you've landed, you set up the scale inside your landing module and climb on it, you'll read about 30 pounds. (You have to do this before you get out of the landing module, because before you can get out, you have to put on your space suit, and then the weighing would get complicated.)
What else can I help you with?
Would the force of of gravity on ganymede be more or less than the gravity on the moon?
less
If you weigh 100lbs on earth you would weigh 16.6lbs on the moon and why?
On the moon, gravity is about 1/6th of the gravity on Earth. Therefore, if you weigh 100lbs on Earth, you would weigh approximately 16.6lbs on the moon. This is because the force of gravity pulling you toward the moon is much weaker compared to the force of gravity pulling you toward Earth.
Does your weight increase or decrease on the moon?
Your weight would decrease on the moon compared to Earth due to the moon's lower gravity. This is because weight is the force of gravity acting on an object, and since the moon has about 1/6th the gravity of Earth, you would weigh about 1/6th of your weight on Earth while on the moon.
How does the force of gravity from the earth affect the moon?
Gravity makes the Moon remain in orbit around Earth.
Is the force of gravity a strong on the moon as it is on earth?
No. That is why you wiegh less on the moon.
Which force gives you weight?
The force of gravity. The gravity on the moon is less than on earth, and if you weighed yourself on the moon, you would weigh less.
Would the force of of gravity on ganymede be more or less than the gravity on the moon?
less
An object has a mass of 180 kg on the moon What is the force of gravity?
The object's force on the moon's surface is 294N
How does the force of gravity on the moon compare to that on Earth?
The force of gravity on the moon is about one-sixth (1/6) of the force of gravity on Earth.
An object has a mass of 180 kg on the moon What is the force of gravity acting on the?
The force of gravity on the moon is about 1/6th that on Earth, so the force of gravity on a 180 kg object on the moon would be 1/6th of its weight on Earth. Therefore, the force of gravity on the object would be about 180 kg * 1/6 = 30 kg.
If you weigh 100lbs on earth you would weigh 16.6lbs on the moon and why?
On the moon, gravity is about 1/6th of the gravity on Earth. Therefore, if you weigh 100lbs on Earth, you would weigh approximately 16.6lbs on the moon. This is because the force of gravity pulling you toward the moon is much weaker compared to the force of gravity pulling you toward Earth.
What would be the weight of a 10kg object on the moon?
The weight of a 10kg object on the Moon would be approximately 1.6kg because the force of gravity on the Moon is about 1/6th that of Earth's gravity.
An object has a mass of 180 kg on the moon What is the force of gravity acting on theobject on the moon?
To find the force of gravity that is acting on the moon you have to take the mass of the object and multiply it by the moon's gravity. It would be 180 kg times 1.63 m/s squared. Which equals 293.4 Newtons.
What is the centripetal force holding the moon into Earth?
The force that holds the moon in place is gravity. Without gravity, there wouldn't be a moon.
What is the force on the Moon's surface compared to the force of gravity on earths surface?
The moon's gravity is about 1/6th of the earth's.
Why that the moon has no gravitational force?
The moon does have gravity. It has 1/6 the gravity of earth.
What attractive force keeps the moon in orbit around earth?
Gravity is what keeps them in attraction. The force of Gravity is determined by the mass and distance between two or more objects. The other force that keeps the moon in orbit is the moon's inertia. Without inertia the moon would simply fall into Earth; because of Gravity, the same would happen with the planets and the sun.
