What else can I help you with?
Does a person weight increase or decrease if they were to weight themselves on the moon?
It decreases
What is your weight on the moon if you weigh 330 newtons?
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.
What device is used to estimate the weight on the moon?
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.
If Earth's tides decrease what would be the most likely explanation?
A shift in the orbit of the moon.
Do snow shoes increase or decrease a persons weight in deep snow?
They don't do anything to a person's weight. What they do is allow what weight there is to be spread over a greater area, which means that the pressure on the ground is lower. With less pressure, a person doesn't sink as far into the snow.
Does your weight increase or decrease on 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.
Does a person weight increase or decrease if they were to weight themselves on the moon?
It decreases
When an astronaut goes to the moon which will decrease his mass or his weight?
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.
What would be a persons weight on moon if his weight on earth is 72 kg?
12 kg or 1/6th.
What happens to a persons weight on the moon as opposed to the earth?
It becomes lighter due to less gravitational pull
Where would a person have less mass?
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.
What would happen to your weight if you went to the moon?
On the moon as the gravity is less you will only weigh 1/6th of your natural weight there.
Why is a persons weight different on earth than on the moon?
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.
Analyze How your weight would change with time if you were on a space ship traveling away from earth toward 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.
How would your weight and mass change if you went 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.
Do the objects mass decrease 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.
If you took this object to the moon what would happen to its weight?
If you took an object to the moon, its weight would decrease significantly because the moon's gravitational pull is only about one-sixth that of Earth's. While the object's mass remains the same, its weight—defined as the force exerted by gravity on that mass—would be much lighter on the moon. This means the object would be easier to lift and move compared to its weight on Earth.
