The moon has less mass than Earth so its gravitational pull is less. Your weight decreases, but you retain the same mass.
The mass is the same in both cases; the weight on the Moon is less (by a factor of 6, approximately).The mass is the same in both cases; the weight on the Moon is less (by a factor of 6, approximately).The mass is the same in both cases; the weight on the Moon is less (by a factor of 6, approximately).The mass is the same in both cases; the weight on the Moon is less (by a factor of 6, approximately).
Because the gravity of the moon is less, and does not pull on things as strongly as the Earth does (moon is smaller)
The gravity is less on the Moon, because the Moon is smaller than earth; it has less mass, and therefore "sucks" less than the earth. Weight is gravity times mass, you have the same mass on Earth and on the Moon (and in space), but weigh less on the moon.
Because there is less gravity on the moon
Your weight is less on the moon b/c you have less gravity that pushes down on you in space--and in space there is no gravity,its a big vacuum and your mass is whats inside you.
Weight is mass times gravity, and there is less gravity on the moon, therefore you weigh less on the moon.
The moon has less mass than the Earth, so it has less gravity. This is why you're lighter on the moon.

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.
No- their weight is less, but mass is not changed.
On the Moon one weighs one-sixth the weight on Earth.

Because there is less gravity on the moon
Mass is the same but weight is about six times less on the moon. This is because the gravitational field strength of the moon is about six times less than that of earth.
