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.

Why there is high tide during full moon?

Depending on where you live, you have high tides about every 12 hours, no matter what the phase of the Moon. However, at the full and new moons, you have higher-than-average "spring" tides, because the gravitational pull of the Moon lines up with the much lower gravitational pull of the Sun. At the quarter moons, we have lower-than-average "neap" tides because the tidal pull of the Moon and the tidal pull of the Sun are working at cross-purposes.


Why can you feel and see the effect of Earth's gravitational pull on you but you cannot feel or see the effect of you teacher's gravitational pull on you?

The difference lies in the mass and distance between you and your teacher. Earth is much more massive and closer to you than your teacher, so its gravitational force is much stronger. Additionally, the force is proportional to the mass of the objects involved, therefore Earth's gravitational pull has a more noticeable effect on you compared to your teacher's.


Planets orbit around the sun but what do moons orbit?

Moons orbit around planets. They are natural satellites that are held in orbit by the planet's gravitational pull.


Does meteors is planets or moons?

Meteors are pieces of either moons or planets that broke off and are freely floating around in place t'ill they get attracted by a planets gravitational pull.


How do lo Europa Ganymede and Callisto stay in orbit around Jupiter?

The Galilean moons—Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto—remain in orbit around Jupiter due to the planet's strong gravitational pull. This gravitational force keeps the moons in stable orbits as they revolve around Jupiter. The balance between their orbital velocity and Jupiter's gravitational pull keeps them from escaping or falling into the planet.
