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.
Why is a persons weight different on earth than on the moon?
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.
What is the weight and mass of a pencil in the moon?
On the Moon, the mass of a pencil would remain the same (since mass is an intrinsic property of an object), so it would still be the mass it has on Earth. However, the weight of the pencil would be about 1/6th of its weight on Earth due to the lower gravity on the Moon.
How would your mass and weight differ on the moon?
Your mass would remain the same on the moon as it is a measure of the amount of matter in your body. However, your weight would be about 1/6th of what it is on Earth due to the weaker gravitational pull on the moon.
Would your weight and mass change if you were on the moon?
(Yes. The mass on the moon is 1/81 than it is on Earth.) No I'm sorry but this is incorrect. Mass is a measure of the number of particles you have, i.e how big you are Weight decreases on the moon, as it is a force caused by gravity.
Where would a person have less mass?
A persons mass never changes. A persons WEIGHT changes according to the amount of gravitational force put on the object. Some 1 on the moon WEIGHS less on the moon but still has the same mass. Mass plays a factor in the weight but a persons mass never changes by where the person is or so I think.
What is your weight on earth if your weight on the moon is 36kg?
There is gravity on the moon! The gravity on the Moon is 1/6th that of what is observed on Earth. An object with a weight of 36 kg on Earth would weigh 1/6th that on the Moon. 1/6th of 36kg is, 6 kg. An object with a MASS of 36 kg on Earth would have the same 36 kg MASS on the moon. Mass is the amount of matter that makes up an object, whereas WEIGHT is the measurement of the force of gravity on that MASS. This is why your weight will change when visiting other planets, but your mass stays constant plant to planet!
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.

Is it true On the moon your mass would be less than it on earth but your weight would be the same?
falseIt is false. Your weight would be less on the moon but your mass would be the same.
Would your weight and mass change on the moon?
So if you take your weight then divide it by 6.13 that is your on the moon and your mass stays the same.
What is the weight and mass of a pencil in the moon?
On the Moon, the mass of a pencil would remain the same (since mass is an intrinsic property of an object), so it would still be the mass it has on Earth. However, the weight of the pencil would be about 1/6th of its weight on Earth due to the lower gravity on the Moon.
Why would your weight would change if you went to the moon but your mass would not?
* Mass doesn't change because of conservation of mass. * Weight changes because it is the product of mass x gravity - and gravity on the Moon is less.
How would your mass and weight differ on the moon?
Your mass would remain the same on the moon as it is a measure of the amount of matter in your body. However, your weight would be about 1/6th of what it is on Earth due to the weaker gravitational pull on the moon.
How would your weight and mass change if you went to the moon?
If you measured your mass and your weight and then went to the moon, you would find that your mass had not changed, and your weight had become about 83 percent less.
If you were to take a radio to the moon would correctly describe the changes to its mass and weight?
The mass of the radio would remain the same on the moon, as mass is an intrinsic property. However, the weight of the radio would be approximately 1/6th of its weight on Earth due to the moon's lower gravitational pull.
Would your weight and mass change if you were on the moon?
(Yes. The mass on the moon is 1/81 than it is on Earth.) No I'm sorry but this is incorrect. Mass is a measure of the number of particles you have, i.e how big you are Weight decreases on the moon, as it is a force caused by gravity.
