The moon is weightless, because the centrifical force of its rotation is counter acting on gravity. If both forces are exactly the same, they cancel out each other. The moon would have weight if it was close enough to fall, but otherwise no.
Helium is a gas that is weightless, odourless, and would make a barrel lighter.
An area that is airless and weightless.
There is not zero gravity on the moon. The moon has weaker gravity compared to Earth due to its smaller mass, but it still has gravity. Astronauts appear to be weightless on the moon due to them being in free fall around the moon.
A person would have to be located at a point in space called the L1 Lagrange point, which is approximately 56,000 kilometers (35,000 miles) above the surface of the Earth. At this point, the gravitational forces from the Earth and the Moon are equal, resulting in a state of equilibrium.
A prestressed structure is not actually weightless; rather, it is designed to redistribute and reduce internal stresses. The prestressing forces counteract the external loads, resulting in a more efficient use of materials and a lighter overall structure. This allows for longer spans and improved structural performance.
The statement that astronauts on the Moon are weightless is true.
By learning enough basic physics to know that objects on the Moon are not, in fact, weightless.
They don't. The moon has gravity but not as much as earth so they feel that they have less weight. In outer space a person would feel weightless because no gravity that they could notice is acting upon them.
because it is in space and every thing in space is weightless.
when your on the moon, or anywhere that has less gravity than earth.
Because the Moon has mass, a LOT of mass. If something has mass, it will have gravitational attraction. The more mass, the greater the attraction. The moon has ~1/6th the gravity as the Earth.
no, a golf ball would weigh about 1/6 what it weighs on earth.
No, astronauts on the moon are not weightless. They have weight due to the moon's gravitational pull, which is about 1/6th of Earth's gravity. This means they experience a lesser force of gravity compared to Earth, allowing them to move more easily on the lunar surface.
A shadow is something that is weightless but can be seen.
No. It is light -- not heavy, but it is not weightless.
Something is weightless when there are no gravitational forces acting upon it.
There is less gravity on the moon than earth. Earth has a lot of gravity which is why things feel heavy and fall as quick as they do. The moon has way, way less gravity therefore it feels like you are weightless and drift a little.
