Because the Moon has less gravity than the Earth.
Weight is a vector of mass and gravity. W=mg
It decreases
Snowshoes do not decrease a person's weight on snow, but they distribute the person's weight over a larger surface area. This distribution reduces the pressure on the snow, preventing the person from sinking as deeply. Essentially, snowshoes allow for better mobility on soft snow by providing a stable platform, making it easier to walk without getting stuck.
If that is your eath weight then you weigh 54.6-non the moon,about 124.9-n on Mars, and about 834.2-n on Jupiter.
A spring scale can be used to estimate weight on the moon by compensating for the moon's lower gravity. The scale will read about 1/6th of the individual's weight on Earth, as gravity on the moon is approximately 1/6th that on Earth.
A shift in the orbit of the moon.
Your weight would decrease on the moon compared to Earth due to the moon's lower gravity. This is because weight is the force of gravity acting on an object, and since the moon has about 1/6th the gravity of Earth, you would weigh about 1/6th of your weight on Earth while on the moon.
It decreases
The astronaut from the country that has a space program that wants to send a person to the moon's weight will decrease due to the fact that weight is directly related to gravity.
12 kg or 1/6th.
A persons mass never changes. A persons WEIGHT changes according to the amount of gravitational force put on the object. Some 1 on the moon WEIGHS less on the moon but still has the same mass. Mass plays a factor in the weight but a persons mass never changes by where the person is or so I think.
It becomes lighter due to less gravitational pull
On the moon as the gravity is less you will only weigh 1/6th of your natural weight there.
The gravity is less on the Moon, because the Moon is smaller than earth; it has less mass, and therefore "sucks" less than the earth. Weight is gravity times mass, you have the same mass on Earth and on the Moon (and in space), but weigh less on the moon.
As you travel away from Earth towards the moon, your weight would gradually decrease due to the reduced gravitational pull from Earth and the increasing distance between you and Earth. In the absence of other forces affecting your weight, it would continue to decrease until you reach the point where the gravitational pull from the moon becomes dominant and your weight would start to increase as you get closer to the moon.
If you measured your mass and your weight and then went to the moon, you would find that your mass had not changed, and your weight had become about 83 percent less.
An object's mass does not change regardless of its location; it remains constant whether on Earth, the Moon, or anywhere else in the universe. However, an object's weight, which is the force exerted on it by gravity, would decrease on the Moon due to its weaker gravitational pull (approximately 1/6th that of Earth's). So, while an object's mass remains the same, its weight would be less on the Moon.
No, an object's mass does not change when it is on the moon. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and does not depend on the gravitational field. However, an object's weight will be less on the moon due to the moon's weaker gravitational pull.
