Yes. On the moon you can jump really high and you weigh less because there is less gravity weighing you down.

Why Does earth contain more metal than the moon?

Earth contains more metal than the Moon because Earth's higher gravity caused heavier materials like metals to sink towards its core during its formation. The Moon, being smaller with weaker gravity, was not able to retain as much metal in its composition.


Where would you weigh the most on earth or the moon?

You would weigh more on Earth than on the Moon. This is because weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object, and the gravitational pull on Earth is stronger than on the Moon.


Why is Earth's gravity six times greater than the gravity on the moon?

The force of gravity is determined by the mass of two objects. Earth's is used as the standard. So on Earth your weight is the same as your mass. Other planets have a different mass than the Earth, so the attraction - or gravity as we call it - differs as well. The mass of the Moon creates a pull only 1/6 as strong as the Earth. Mass can be more or densely packed together such as a gas or solid rock. The density of the material also affects the force of gravity at the surface. The force of gravity diminishes with distance. So, floating on a gas giant that has the same mass as the Earth, you would feel less gravity.


Why does earth have the most amount of gravity?

The amout of gravity is directly related to the mass of the body, since the earth has more mass it also has more gravity than the moon just like Jupiter has more mass than earth so it has more gravity.


Why do more meteors hit the moon than the earth?

More meteors hit the moon than the earth because the moon has no atmosphere to burn up the meteors before impact. Earth's atmosphere acts as a protective barrier, causing most meteors to disintegrate before reaching the surface. The moon's lack of atmosphere means more meteors make it to the surface, leaving more visible impact craters.

Why does an elephant weigh more on the earth than on the moon?

An elephant weighs more on Earth than on the moon because Earth has a greater gravitational pull than the moon. Weight is the measure of the force of gravity acting on an object, so the stronger the gravity, the greater the weight of the object.

Not a chance


What has more gravity moon or mars?

Mars has 38% approximative gravity to that of Earth, meaning Earth has almost three times as much. While the moon has 16.7% that of the Earth. Meaning Mars has a stronger gravitational pull then that of the moon.
