How much is Moon's gravitational pull?

About one sixth of the earth's. That means that if something ways 30kg on the earth, 30 divided by 6= 5 kg which means it will way only 5 kg on the moon.


How are are the earth and moon different?

The moon has easily visible craters, but the ones on earth have mostly weathered away. The Earth has wind and the moon doesn't. Earth has atmosphere but the moon doesn't have one.


Why does the moon look different from earth at different times of each month?

The appearance of the moon changes because of its orbit around the Earth. As the moon orbits, the amount of sunlight reflecting off its surface that we can see changes, causing different phases like full moon, new moon, and crescent moon. The moon's position relative to the Earth and the Sun determines these phases.


What is the moon's height?

The orbital distance of the Moon (which is measured from the *center* of the Earth) varies. The average is 384,400 km or 238,900 miles, and can be about 21,000 km (5%) different.


How much less is the Moon's gravity than that of the earth's?

Since the Moon's gravity is 1/6 that of Earth, the Moon's gravity is 5/6 less than that of Earth.


What are the release dates for From the Earth to the Moon - 1998 Spider 1-5?

Does earth have 5 moons?

No, Earth has only one natural moon. While there are some asteroids that are captured into orbits around Earth for short periods of time, they are not considered moons.


How much does the moon rotate around the earth?

The angle between any two points is a straight line, or 180 degrees.I suspect what you meant to ask was what the Sun-Earth-Moon angle was at that time. If so, the answer is (pretty close to) 180 degrees. If it's exactly 180 degrees, then there will be a lunar eclipse.


If an object on earth weighs 30 pounds how many pounds is it on the moon?

The object would weigh approximately 5 pounds on the moon due to the moon's lower gravity. This is because the gravitational pull on the moon is about 1/6th that of Earth's gravity.


What are the ratings and certificates for From the Earth to the Moon - 1998 Spider 1-5?

From the Earth to the Moon - 1998 Spider 1-5 is rated/received certificates of: Australia:M (video rating)


If the moon is 1m wide and the Earth is four times the size what size is the Earth?

The Earth is much more than 8 times "bigger" than the Moon, but there are several ways in which this could be interpreted; in terms of diameter, surface area, volume, or mass. The Earth is about 5 time larger in diameter than the Moon; the Earth has a diameter of about 13,000 km, while the Moon has a diameter of about 2400 km. In surface area, the difference is more pronounced; the Moon has about the same surface area as the continent of Africa, about 1/15th that of the Earth. By volume, the Moon is only about 1/40th of the Earth's volume, and if measured by mass, the Earth is about 80 times more massive. (The Earth has a much greater density than the Moon does.)


Which movement causes lunar phases?

The moon's orbit around the Earth causes sunlight to hit the moon at a different angle and since the moon rotates on it's axis in the same time it orbits our planet, we see different appearances of the moon's near side.
