The moon has gravity, although less than Earth has.

Does Canada have 0 gravity?
No. Sadly Canadians are forced to walk like te rest of us.
If an astronaut weighs 125 pounds on earth than how much does it weigh on the moon?
Yes. Mass and weight are different quantities. The mass of the astronaut is always the same everywhere. The weight of the astronaut is the force on it due to gravity, which depends on the mass and the strength of gravity at the point on the planet, moon or space station the astronaut is standing on. The strength of gravity is known as "local acceleration due to gravity", and it is represented by the letter g. On the surface of the earth g is about 9.8 ms-2. On the surface of the moon g is about 1.6 ms-2 (a 6th that of the earth). On a space station, because the mass of the station is so small, g is effectively 0 ms-2. So, the weight of an object is the force on it due to gravity. The formula for weight is: W = mg Where: W = Weight (in Newtons) m = mass (of the object, in Kg) g = local acceleration due to gravity (in ms-2). Hopefully you see this formula is a restatement of F = ma. Your average man has a mass of about 70 kg. If you plug in the numbers you find the weight on the earth is 686 N, on the moon is 112 N, and on the space station it is 0 N (i.e. the astronaut is totally weightless).
Why do moonwalkers wear heavy soles?
They aren't, it's something people believe due to a misunderstanding. The Apollo A7L space suit worn by Neil Armstrong during his moon walk weighed around 200lbs. This was because it was a five-layer, reinforced, pressurised suit to protect the occupant and keep him alive. No extra weight was added artificially, he could have moonwalked just fine in a much lighter suit.
Why do the astronauts have to be mentally and physically fit?
If they werent mentally fit, they would have a breakdown, and if they arent physically fit, they couldn't do their work in 0 Gravity. Please Reccomend.
Who was the youngest person to die and how old were they?
0 years old is the youngest person to die and came right out and died
Is there 0 gravity on the moon?
No. The rate of acceleration due to gravity on the Moon is 1.6249 m/s2 which is 16.7% of that on Earth. Things on the Moon weigh 16.7% of what they would on Earth.
How do you explain why the probability that you will be the first person walk on the jmoojn in zero?
If "jmoojn" is the moon then the event has already happened and it was not you. So it is impossible and therefore the probability is 0.
Is there 0 gravity on the moon if so how does NASA provide video of men on the moon dropping a feather and hammer?
There is enough gravity on the moon for us to go there and explore. Any object with mass also has gravity. While the moon is smaller than the earth, it still has an immense amount of mass.
Does Canada have 0 gravity?
No. Sadly Canadians are forced to walk like te rest of us.
How much would a 245.88 lb person weigh on the moon?
1lb Your weight doesn't change but the reduction in gravity makes you feel lighter as there is less resistance.
How do you gravity moon gravity in Tony Hawk's American Wasteland?
you enter "2them00n" (without the quotation marks and the 0 are zeros) under cheat codes
What will happen if people drive motorcycle 100km per hour on the moon?
Since there is no gravity in the moon, hence the attraction of the moon can be said, there will be an attraction of 2, and due to the presence of 0 gravity on the moon space, if the <a href="http://www.bikebd.com/">motorcycle</a> is at 100km or 200km, its speed will be 1 to 2 kilometers per hour.
What happened if the gravity in earth is zero?
If the gravity of the Earth was 0, the law of uniformity would mean that gravity everywhere else in the universe would also be 0 and it therefore could not exist. If you somehow managed to make just the Earth's gravity 0 the planet would fly apart as a result of the centrifugal force of its spin and the Moon would fly off and orbit the Sun on its own.

Why would a baseball go higher if it were thrown from the surface of the Moon than if it were thrown with the same velocity from the surface of Earth?
because of 0 gravity
When their is 0 gravity does it mean there is no gravity?
yes
The gravity on the Moon is what percentage of Earth gravity?
Earth's moon is roughly 1.2% the mass of earth.
