No. Newtons are a measurement of mass and are relative only to Earth's gravity and are not affected by changes in gravity. Only weight is affected by changing gravity.
On Earth, weight and mass are the same because Earth's gravity is the benchmark constant for measuring mass in Newtons, and weight is affected by that very same factor (Earth's gravity).
On other planets, mass is unchanged because the Earthly gravity is a constant (and therefore, unchanged), and the weight changes because now it is affected by a new planetary gravity.
on the moon it will weigh roughly 1/6 the amount of newtons as it does on earth. So 16.7 on earth would be about 2.8 newtons on the moon.
The gravitational acceleration on the moon is about one-sixth that of Earth. Therefore, the colonist would weigh 800.15 newtons / 6 ≈ 133.36 newtons on the moon.
To find your weight on the Moon, we have to divide 9.8 (gravity on the Earth) by 6. That answer has to be multiplied by 85 pounds. that answer is done in newtons as you are finding the weight on the moon. newtons is unit for weight.
A 10-kg mass would weigh 98 newtons (22.05 pounds) on earth, and 16 newtons (3.6 pounds) on the moon.
The weight of an object is the force exerted on it by gravity. On the Moon, gravity is about 1/6th that of Earth's. Therefore, a 1 kg object would weigh approximately 1.6 newtons on the Moon, compared to about 9.8 newtons on Earth.
on the moon it will weigh roughly 1/6 the amount of newtons as it does on earth. So 16.7 on earth would be about 2.8 newtons on the moon.
One Newton on Earth is about 0.1653 newtons on the moon.
Your mass (kilograms) would stay the same as it never changes. But if you are talking about weight (newtons) it would depend on what you were comparing it to. If you have a weight of 300 newtons on earth then you would weigh 49.8 newtons on the moon therefore you would have lost weight. Whereas if you weighed 20.1 Newtons on Pluto you would weigh 49.8 newtons on the moon, loosing weight.
If your weight on Earth is 545 newtons then on the moon your weight will be 1/6 as much or about 9.6kg
The gravitational acceleration on the moon is about one-sixth that of Earth. Therefore, the colonist would weigh 800.15 newtons / 6 ≈ 133.36 newtons on the moon.
On the moon, the force exerted by 10 newtons would be approximately 1.63 newtons, because the moon's gravity is about 1/6th of Earth's gravity. This means that objects will weigh much less on the moon compared to Earth.
Mass is a characteristic of the person or object. It stays with him/it and doesn't change no matter where he/it goes. "Newtons" is not a measurement of mass. It's a measurement of force, and it could represent the person's weight. If the person weighs 490 newtons on Earth, then his mass is about 50 kilograms anywhere, and he would weigh about 81 newtons on the moon.
Yes. Your 'weight' would change, (in Newtons) but your 'mass' (in pounds, kilos, grams, tonnes, ounces etc) would not.
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!
On earth: 98 newtons (22.1 pounds) On the moon: 16 newtons (3.6 pounds)
It would be g/6 newtons.
If that is your eath weight then you weigh 54.6-non the moon,about 124.9-n on Mars, and about 834.2-n on Jupiter.
