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 means they can jump around more easily, since the force required to lift their bodies is a lot less.
The statement that astronauts on the Moon are weightless is true.
They don't. The moon has gravity but not as much as earth so they feel that they have less weight. In outer space a person would feel weightless because no gravity that they could notice is acting upon them.
Because the Moon has mass, a LOT of mass. If something has mass, it will have gravitational attraction. The more mass, the greater the attraction. The moon has ~1/6th the gravity as the Earth.
No, astronauts on the moon are not weightless. They have weight due to the moon's gravitational pull, which is about 1/6th of Earth's gravity. This means they experience a lesser force of gravity compared to Earth, allowing them to move more easily on the lunar surface.
We do experience the gravity of the moon, as does the entire planet. But since the planet is essentially in freefall with respect to the moon's gravity we feel effectively weightless with respect to the moon. Now, when standing on the moon, humans do feel its gravity, but its strength is only about 1/6 of that of the Earth, due to its smaller mass.
The statement that astronauts on the Moon are weightless is true.
no, a golf ball would weigh about 1/6 what it weighs on earth.
When someone is freefalling in thee air thus they become weightless
The moon is weightless, because the centrifical force of its rotation is counter acting on gravity. If both forces are exactly the same, they cancel out each other. The moon would have weight if it was close enough to fall, but otherwise no.
Yes
By learning enough basic physics to know that objects on the Moon are not, in fact, weightless.
They don't. The moon has gravity but not as much as earth so they feel that they have less weight. In outer space a person would feel weightless because no gravity that they could notice is acting upon them.
because it is in space and every thing in space is weightless.
when your on the moon, or anywhere that has less gravity than earth.
gravity you idiot. Become weightless, then talk.
Because the Moon has mass, a LOT of mass. If something has mass, it will have gravitational attraction. The more mass, the greater the attraction. The moon has ~1/6th the gravity as the Earth.
the absence of the gravitational force or field in space causes the astronauts to become weightless
