Yes and no.
The earth has mass and therefore weight, and is inside a gravitational field (several actually) but to "pick it up" would mean pulling it away from the sun, as bizarre as that seems. Inertia would be harder to overcome than gravity I imagine. The mass of the earth is a far more useful and meaningful concept.
The Earth has mass; 5.9742 × 1024 kilograms, however weight is a property of mass in a gravitational field - the Earth is in the gravitational field of the Sun and in free fall orbit.
If something weighs 127kg on Earth it will weigh 21kg on the Moon.
The Earth spins like a carousel. When weight is shifted from one side of the carousel to another, or even just moved by a few feet, the carousel wobbles just a bit. Any major earthquake causes some movement of the tectonic plates, and thus can "shift the Earth's axis" by just a bit. VERY powerful earthquakes, such as the ones in December 2004 or March 2011 can jiggle it measurably, especially using super-sensitive instruments like GPS satellites.
Jupiter has the largest mass. "Weight" is the mutual force of gravity between two masses. The "weight" of a single mass, remote from any others, has no meaning. At its surface, Jupiter has the greatest gravitational acceleration of any planet in the solar system. But its "weight" depends on what other mass you place near it, and exactly how far apart they are. If I am the other mass, and I place myself 44,423 miles from the center of Jupiter, at its "surface", then in my gravitational field, Jupiter weighs roughly 448 pounds.
Gravity works on Earth by pulling all the things to the center of the Earth. For example if you throw a stone in the air it will not fall into the orbit but it would come back to you focusing on you as the center of gravity. On the moon gravity is one sixth of what it is on Earth so, if you walk, jump or throw a stone in the air it would be hard for it to land down and come back to same place as from where it was launched. same with your weight.... weight on Earth: 60 Then weight on moon: 10 (1/6 of 60 or weight on Earth) Hope it helped! Thanx!
the meaning of watching glee is enjoying it ans sending a strong message that excepting yourself. and to be honest its my favorite show on this earth.
The weight of any object on the Moon is about 1/6 of the weight of the same object on the Earth.
any name which have a meaning is the best name on the earth.
this, don't have any direct meaning. elaborate it! and definetly earth is present.
You can take the weight of anything on earth, multiply it by 0.359, and you'll havethe weight of the same object on Mars, in the same units you started with (pounds,tons, ounces, newtons, stone, etc.)That number comes from mashing together the differences in both the weight andradius of the earth and Mars; those are the physical characteristics that determinean object's weight on any planet.Similarly, you can take the earth-weight of any object in any unit of weight, multiplyit by 0.1633, and you'll have its weight on the moon.
The use of the word "weight" is inappropriate in this context. Near the surface, Earth's gravity is 9.8 N / kg, meaning that every kilogram weights 9.8 Newton. This can also be expressed as the equivalent 9.8 meters / second square, i.e., that is the acceleration given by Earth to any object, if air resistance can be neglected.
Weight has little meaning in space. Mars is about 10.7% the mass of Earth.
No. The weight of any object on the Moon would be about 1/6 the weight on Earth.
Mars's gravitational pull is 38% that of Earth's, meaning you would weigh 38 pounds on that planet.
Multiply any earth weight by 0.163 to get the moon weight of the same object.
The acceleration of gravity ... and therefor the weight of any object ... on thesurface of Mercury is 37.698% of its value on the surface of Earth. (rounded)
The weight of an object is the size of the equal mutual gravitational forcesbetween the object and another mass. In our daily experience, the othermass is always the Earth.
Weight is the FORCE by which Earth PULL any body towards it centre of gravity.
