We can know through two ways. First, we know the moon's mass and radius. From there it is fairly simple to calculate surface gravity. Second, we have sent probes and people to the moon, making it possible to actually measure the strength of gravity.
An object on the moon's surface weighs 0.165 as much as it does on the Earth's surface.
Lunar gravity is one-sixth as strong as Earth's gravity.
Being smaller, the Moon's gravity is less than that of Earth.
Everything has gravity. Your weight on the moon is about 16 percent of what it is on Earth.
The moon has one-sixth of the Earths gravity.
The gravity on the moon is about 1/6th of the gravity on Earth.
An object on the moon's surface weighs 0.165 as much as it does on the Earth's surface.
Lunar gravity is one-sixth as strong as Earth's gravity.
The gravity on the moon is about 1/6th of the gravity on Earth. This means that objects weigh much less on the moon compared to Earth.
Being smaller, the Moon's gravity is less than that of Earth.
Everything has gravity. Your weight on the moon is about 16 percent of what it is on Earth.
The moon has one-sixth of the Earths gravity.
About a 1/6 of earth gravity. 1.63 m/s^2 in gravitational acceleration
The moon's gravity is about 1/6th (16.5%) as strong as Earth's gravity. This means that an object on the moon weighs about 1/6th of what it weighs on Earth.
Yes - but the moon's gravity is only about one sixth (or 16%) of that on Earth.
Yes, gravity is present on the moon. However, the gravity on the moon is about 1/6th that of Earth's gravity. This is why objects and people weigh less on the moon compared to Earth.
Compared to what ? -- Compared to the surface of Mars, it's 43.7% as much. -- Compared to the surface of Pluto, it's 2.8 times as much. -- Compared to the surface of the Earth, it's 16.5% as much.
