Mass is an intrinsic property of matter that represents the amount of material an object contains. It remains constant regardless of an object's location in the universe because it is a fundamental property of the object itself, not dependent on external factors like gravity or location.

What would your weight and mass be if your were on the moon?

Your weight on the moon would be about 16.5% of your weight on Earth due to the moon's weaker gravitational pull. However, your mass would remain the same regardless of location, as mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object.


What is reason mass and weight are the same everywhere on earth?

The question isn't quite right. Wherever you go on earth, there is mass. Weight changes, however. I think it helps to know the fundamentals to understand this. Mass causes gravity, and gravity causes weight. If you were at the center of the earth, the gravity from the mass would pull you equally in all directions, and you would be weightless. Weight is the measurable effect of mass.


Would your mass change on the moon and why not?

Mass is the measurement of the amount of stuff that makes up an object. Your mass belongs to you. It doesn't depend on where you are, or on anything about the place where you are, or on what's around you. It goes wherever you go and it doesn't change. Your weight is the result of your mass and the other masses in the place where you are, so it changes as you go around visiting different neighborhoods, such as the surface of the moon.


Does an object on earth have the same mass as it does on the moon yes or no?

Yes. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and remains constant regardless of the location. Weight, on the other hand, is the force of gravity acting on an object and can differ depending on the gravitational strength of the location.


Can you explain why your mass would be the same on earth and the moon?

Well, no matter what, our mass would be the same where ever you go. Matter cannot be created or destroyed. Theres no way that you could just lose a little mass simply by going to the moon, its impossible.

Is your mass different on the moon from what it is on the Earth?

No. Your mass is the amount of stuff you're made of. You take it with you wherever you go, and it doesn't change.


What is the diffrerence between mass and weight?

Mass is constant. You have the same amount of mass wherever you are in the Universe. Weight is the affect of gravity acting on your mass. So you weigh 1/6th as much on the Moon because there is less gravity there but you have the same amount of mass as you do on Earth.


Does mass change depending on where you are?

No. Mass will be the same wherever an object is.


How can you make the mass meaningful to you?

Read the New World Translation bible at home then bring truth with you wherever you go.


Would mass change if we were on another planet?

No, mass is the same for an object wherever it goes. What changes is its weight, which is the force of attraction acting on it through proximity to a massive object.


Explain why your mass is the same wherever you are?

Because your 'mass' is the amount of matter/stuff/substance/material that you're made of. Just like the amount of money in your pocket, the simple act of moving from one place to another doesn't have any effect on it.

1 kilo is normally used to refer to 1 kilogram. This is a measure of mass and is NOT the same as weight. A mass of 1 kg is a mass of 1 kg - wherever it is.
