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.

Does the earth and the moon have the same amount of mass?

No, they do not have the same mass. The moon has much less mass than Earth.


Why moon has less g value then earth?

The moons gravity is less than that of the earth, since the earths mass is greater than the moons mass. Gravity is related to mass and distance from that mass. The greater the mass, the greater the gravitational field it has.


Is the mass of the moon greater than the mass of the earth?

No. The mass of the moon is a fraction of the earth's mass.


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.


If you weigh less on the moon do you have less mass?

No, your mass remains the same regardless of the gravitational force acting on you. Weight is dependent on gravity and mass, so on the moon where gravity is weaker, you would weigh less compared to on Earth, but your mass would stay constant.


Would the mass of an elephant be less on the moon?

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.


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.


Does earth's pull is greater than the Moon's pull?

Yes, you would weigh less if you were on the moon


On the moon would your mass be less that it is on Earth and your weight would be the same?

False


Moon gravity vs earths gravity?

Moon gravity is less because the atmosphere and mass and the earths gravity is greater than the moon if you weight yourself in the earth and then you weighted yourself in the moon you would weight less in the moon you could actually float in the moon because of its atmosphere and mass


Would a person weigh less on Pluto or the Moon?

A person would weigh less on the Moon compared to Pluto because the Moon has less mass and weaker gravity than Pluto. The gravitational pull on Pluto is stronger due to its larger mass, causing a person to weigh more on Pluto than on the Moon.
