An elephant would weigh less on the moon compared to Earth because the moon has less gravitational pull. The weight of an object is determined by the gravitational force acting on it, so lower gravity on the moon means less weight for the elephant.
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.
An elephant would weigh less on the moon due to the moon's weaker gravitational pull compared to Earth. The weight of an object depends on the gravitational pull acting upon it, so on the moon an elephant would experience less gravitational force and therefore weigh less.
an elephant has less percent of body weight because it distributes the weight more evenly resulting in a smaller amount of body weight <^>
Yes weight changes due to gravity and mass is constant in terms of gravity. There is less gravity in space than the earth so they would weigh less but their mass would be the same. They have less gravity pulling on them, so yes. Unless they have artificial gravity creators in or on the space ship that I don't know about.
you would be weight "less" as in 0 you wouldn't be able to get on to e.g scales sorry?
To calculate weight in space, you would use the formula: Weight in space = Weight on Earth x (gravitational pull of space / gravitational pull of Earth). Since gravitational pull in space is typically much lower than on Earth (about 0.17 times that of Earth), your weight in space would be significantly less. Keep in mind this calculation assumes a constant gravitational pull throughout the region of space you are in.
Your weight would be considerably less in space than on Earth due to the absence of gravity pulling you down. In space, you would experience microgravity, causing your body to float and feel weightless.
You would weigh less, but your mass would stay the same. Weight is a result of gravity, mass is an inherent property of matter.
Here on earth, gravity pulls us down, so the power that pulls us back makes our weight. In space you don't have gravity so nothing will pull us down. You don't weight less in space, you weight nothing in space! That's why we have "mass"
Your weight is less on the moon b/c you have less gravity that pushes down on you in space--and in space there is no gravity,its a big vacuum and your mass is whats inside you.
probably like 2,000 men can lift an elephant but if it were a baby elephant it wuld probably be less : ]
