because the moon has less mass than earth so humans weigh less on the moon than earth
Astronauts weigh less on the Moon than on Earth because the Moon has less mass and gravity than Earth. The gravitational force on the Moon is about 1/6th that of Earth, so objects (including astronauts) weigh less on the Moon due to this weaker gravity.
No, humans weigh less on the Moon than on Earth because the Moon has less gravity. The gravitational force on the Moon is about 1/6th of the gravitational force on Earth, so a person would weigh less on the Moon compared to Earth.
Objects weigh less on the moon because it has less gravity compared to Earth. The gravitational pull of the moon is about one-sixth that of Earth, so objects on the moon experience less force pulling them down, resulting in lower weight.
Objects weigh less on the moon than on Earth because the moon has less mass and gravity. The gravitational force on the moon is only about 1/6th that of Earth's, so objects weigh less due to the weaker gravitational pull.
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.
Yes to the "weigh less" part, no to the "because" part.
Astronauts weigh less on the Moon than on Earth because the Moon has less mass and gravity than Earth. The gravitational force on the Moon is about 1/6th that of Earth, so objects (including astronauts) weigh less on the Moon due to this weaker gravity.
No, humans weigh less on the Moon than on Earth because the Moon has less gravity. The gravitational force on the Moon is about 1/6th of the gravitational force on Earth, so a person would weigh less on the Moon compared to Earth.
the moon's gravitational pull is far less than that of earth's
The moons gravity is a lot lower than the Earths, so the men exploring the lunar surface will weigh a lot less, roughly 1/6th of what they do on earth. This is because the moon has considerably less mass.
No, you weigh less because the moon has less mass, or is smaller, than earth whick means that is has less of a gravitational pull.
You will have less weight on the Moon than on Earth (83.3% less), but your mass will remain unaffected. If you weigh 150lbs on Earth, then you would weigh only 26.55lbs on the Moon.
Yes, that is exactly what makes you weigh less on Earth then on the Moon, though your mass hasn't changed, your apparent weight does.
Weight is mass times gravity, and there is less gravity on the moon, therefore you weigh less on the moon.
On the Moon, because it has less gravity.
The moon has weaker gravity than Earth does.
yes
