No, the mass of the elephant will never change, but on the moon the elephant would weigh less. Weight is the affect of gravitation wich is the attraction of two bodies that have mass. The mass of the moon is smaller then that of the earth so the gravitational pull would be less.

Is the mass of an elephant the same on the moon as mars?
The mass would be the same. the weight would not.
Would an elephant weigh more or less on the moon?
Less. Because the moons gravitational pull is less than Earths. For instance, if the elephant weighed 1000lbs on Earth it would weigh 166lbs on the moon.
What weighs more the moon or all the animals on earth put together?
Not really a scientific question... but here goes: 1 mole is 6.02214179*10^23 Lets assume each elephant weight 5 tons and the moon weighs 7.6*10^22 kilograms. 1 mole of elephants weighs: 5000 kg * 6.02214179*10^23 = 3.011070895*10^27 kilograms. 3.011070895*10^27 kg - 7.6*10^22 kg = 3.010994895*10^27 kg more. To put this number in perspective: 3.011070895*10^27 kg / 7.6*10^22 kg = 39619 So 1 mole of elephants would weigh as much as 39619 moons
Would you mass be less greater or the same on the moon?
Your mass is an invariant property of the matter from which you are made, it would therefore remain the same on the Moon or anywhere else in the Universe. However, your weight would be less on the Moon than on Earth because the gravity field of the Moon is less than that of Earth and your weight is the result of how hard gravity attracts your mass.
On the moon would your mass be less that it is on Earth and your weight would be the same?
False
What would the Mass of elephant on the moon?
it would be the same wherever you are

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 mass be more or less on the moon?
Mass is the same no matter where you are. Weight is less, but mass is the same.

Is the mass of an elephant on the moon the same as it's weight on the moon?
Mass and weight are two different things. Mass does not change, but weight changes depending on the gravity acting on the item. An elephant has the same mass on Earth, the Moon, or when weightless in orbit. The weights in each of those location will vary greatly.
Would person weigh more or less on the moon?
The Moon is much smaller than the Earth, and its Mass is much less. Thus the pull of gravity is much less on the Moon.Therefore, you would weigh less on the Moon than on Earth, even though your Mass would be the same.
Why does an elephant weigh more on the earth than on the moon?
Earth has more gravity. The elephant's mass will hardly change if you take it to the Moon, and:weight = mass x gravity
Would you mass be less greater or the same on the moon?
Your mass is an invariant property of the matter from which you are made, it would therefore remain the same on the Moon or anywhere else in the Universe. However, your weight would be less on the Moon than on Earth because the gravity field of the Moon is less than that of Earth and your weight is the result of how hard gravity attracts your mass.
On the moon would your mass be less that it is on Earth and your weight would be the same?
False
Why is there less gravity on moon?
The moon has less mass than Earth. Gravity is proportional to mass, so there is less gravity on the moon.
