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 the mass of an elephant the same on the moon as mars?
The mass of an object remains constant regardless of its location in the universe. So, an elephant's mass would be the same on the Moon or Mars as it is on Earth. However, an object's weight, which is the effect of gravity on its mass, would differ on the Moon and Mars due to variations in their gravitational pull.
Is the mass of an elephant on the moon the same as it's weight on the moon?
Mass and weight are two different things. Mass does not change, but weight changes depending on the gravity acting on the item. An elephant has the same mass on Earth, the Moon, or when weightless in orbit. The weights in each of those location will vary greatly.
Would you use kilograms or milligrams for a mass of an elephant?
Kilograms would be used to measure the mass of an elephant.
What mass would be suitable for an elephant?
tons
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.
What unit of measure would you use to measure the mass of an elephant?
You would use the unit of measure called "kilograms" to measure the mass of an elephant.
Could an elephant jump on the moon?
This question requires a little guessing at your intended context. But here's a possible answer: The elephant is considerably more massive than you are. Both you and the elephant are weightless, but you both retain your normal respective mass. Let's put you both in space suits. From your position next to the elephant, you give him a little push. For a given force (from the push) the change in your respective motions will be inversely proportional to your respective masses, so your change in motion will be much greater than the elephant's. But both motions will change, so yes, you can push an elephant in space, but he pushes back without even trying.
Would an elephant weigh more or less on the moon?
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.
Why does an elephant weigh less on the moon than it does on earth?
An elephant weighs less on the moon than on Earth due to the difference in gravitational pull between the two celestial bodies. The moon's gravity is about 1/6th that of Earth's, meaning that objects, including elephants, experience less gravitational force and therefore weigh less. While the mass of the elephant remains constant, its weight is affected by the gravitational acceleration acting on it. Thus, an elephant would weigh significantly less on the moon compared to its weight on Earth.
What weighs more the moon or all the animals on earth put together?
Not really a scientific question... but here goes: 1 mole is 6.02214179*10^23 Lets assume each elephant weight 5 tons and the moon weighs 7.6*10^22 kilograms. 1 mole of elephants weighs: 5000 kg * 6.02214179*10^23 = 3.011070895*10^27 kilograms. 3.011070895*10^27 kg - 7.6*10^22 kg = 3.010994895*10^27 kg more. To put this number in perspective: 3.011070895*10^27 kg / 7.6*10^22 kg = 39619 So 1 mole of elephants would weigh as much as 39619 moons
What metric unit would you use to measure the mass of an elephant?
A ton for a rough and ready measure. A tenth of a ton (100 kilograms) if you were a biologist following the elephant's development in more detail.
