Your mass is the amount of matter that contains, it is your weight that will differ due to gravity. The astronaut still has the same amount of matter whether he be on earth, in space, or on the moon, though due to the different strenghts of gravity he will weight the most on earth, 1/6th of this on the moon, and be weightless in outer space.

What is a astronauts mass on the moon?
Irrespective of where the astronaut is, their mass is going to be remain the same
Why does an astronaut weigh less on the moon?
An astronaut weighs less on the moon because the moon has less mass than Earth, meaning weaker gravitational force. Weight is the result of the gravitational force acting on an object's mass, so with less force on the moon, the astronaut feels lighter.
What happens to the mass of an astronaut when he is on the moon?
The mass of an astronaut remains the same on the moon as it does on Earth. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and does not change based on location. However, the astronaut's weight would be less on the moon due to the moon's lower gravitational force compared to Earth.
When an astronaut lands on the moon his inertia would be less more or same?
Inertia is related to MASS. MASS is a property of matter. Matter is the same on the Earth or on the Moon. Therefore his inertia would be the same.
Is the mass of an astronaut more or less on the moon or on earth?
The mass of an astronaut remains the same whether they are on the moon or on Earth. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter an object has and is independent of the gravitational force acting on it. However, the weight of an astronaut would be less on the moon compared to Earth due to the moon's weaker gravitational pull.

When an astronaut walks on the moon is either her mass or her weight the same as on earths?
The mass is the same; the weight is not.

Is the mass of the astronaut on Mars bigger smaller or the same compared with on Earth?
You would have the same mass on the Earth as you would on the moon. You would just weigh less on the moon because there is less gravity there than on the moon.
Would you have less mass or less weight on the smaller moon?
The mass of the astronaut remains the same. However, the weight of the astronaut is less on the moon.
An astronaut on the moon would have the same as on Earth?
An astronaut on the moon would experiences one-sixth (16.5%) the gravity that they do on Earth. This means that they would weigh less and have less resistance to movement.
What force acts on an astronaut standing still on the moon?
Gravity, mainly that of the moon. Gravity on the Moon is a lot less than on Earth but it works in the same way.
If a man has a mass of 100kg on earth what will his mass on the moon be?
The question is ill-posed. Weight is mesured in Newtons (N) as it's a force, it's mass is measured in kg. There are ctually two questions mixed together here. Let's answer both: 1) If an astronaut has a mass of 100kg on earth what is his mass on the moon? 100kg - put him on a frictionless surface and try and accelerate him, it's just has hard on the moon as on earth (or anywhere else for that matter). 2) If an astronaut weighs 981N on the surface of the earth (as an astronaut of mass 100kg would) how much does he weigh on the moon? Surface gravity on the earth is 9.81m/s/s which is how we end up with the 100kg astronaut weighing 981N. On the moon surface gravity is only 1.62m/s/s so the same astronaut would weigh 162N - about 1 sixth that on earth.
Astronauts jump easily on the moon How does this compare to his mass and weight on the earth?
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).
