The weight of an object is the product of its mass (M) and the acceleration due to gravity (g). We represent this product as mass, m times (x) acceleration (g) = mg.
On the moon, (g) is less than that on the earth. Hence every object on the moon will have a lower or smaller weight when compared with its weight on the earth.
The quantity of matter in both locations will be the same, but the product or weight will be different. This is taught in physics and experienced by astronauts. That is why astronauts can move around and carry weights with less hindrance. A man on the moon could, (except for the strings and tubes that hold him) run faster on the moon when compared with his speed on earth if he has as much oxygen to breath.
yes
The person's weight on Saturn would be different than on Earth because gravitational pull varies depending on the planet. On Saturn, the gravitational pull is weaker than on Earth, so the person would weigh less. The exact weight would depend on Saturn's specific gravitational force.
A person weighing 100 pounds on Earth would weigh approximately 91 pounds on Venus. Venus has a similar size and composition to Earth, so the gravitational pull on its surface is about 91% of Earth's gravity.
The weight of a space probe on the surface of Mars would be less than on Earth due to Mars having lower gravity. Mars has about 38% of Earth's gravity, so a space probe that weighs 1000 lbs on Earth would only weigh about 380 lbs on the surface of Mars.
Based on surface gravity, your weight on each planet would be: Mercury: 38% of your weight on Earth Venus: 91% of your weight on Earth Mars: 38% of your weight on Earth Jupiter: 236% of your weight on Earth Saturn: 113% of your weight on Earth Uranus: 92% of your weight on Earth Neptune: 113% of your weight on Earth These values are approximate and assume a similar mass and body composition.
Well it depends on where this person was weighed. If they were weighed on Earth, then they would be 100 pounds.
To find your weight on other planets, you would multiply your weight on Earth by the planet's surface gravity relative to Earth's surface gravity. For example, your weight on Mars would be your weight on Earth multiplied by 0.38, as Mars' surface gravity is 0.38 times that of Earth.
On Uranus, a person weighing 100 pounds on Earth would weigh approximately 89 pounds. This is due to the lower surface gravity on Uranus compared to Earth. The surface gravity on Uranus is about 0.89 times that of Earth, so a person's weight would be reduced accordingly.
The person would be about 89 kilograms in weight. The person would still have a mass of 100 kilograms, of course. The strict scientific unit of weight is the "newton" because that is the unit of force and weight exerts a force. The 100 kg person weighs 890 newtons on Venus. However, normally we say "kilograms" or "kilograms weight", as long as we are clear that weight and mass are different.
The answer depends on the person's weight on Earth but each pound's weight on Earth would be equivalent to 0.376 pound's weight on Mars.
yes
That's the force we usually call the "weight" of the person or object.
A 150 pound person would weigh 179 pounds on Neptune. The surface gravity on Neptune is 119% of Earth's surface gravity.
The person's weight on Saturn would be different than on Earth because gravitational pull varies depending on the planet. On Saturn, the gravitational pull is weaker than on Earth, so the person would weigh less. The exact weight would depend on Saturn's specific gravitational force.
It would be greater.
It would be greater.
It would be greater.
