Best Answer

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.

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


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.


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.


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.


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.


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.


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


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.


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.


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.
