Neither. You can't compare one with the other.

Why do objects with more mass weigh more than objects with less mass?

Objects with more mass weigh more because weight is directly proportional to mass. The gravitational force acting on an object is stronger when the object has more mass, resulting in a greater weight measurement.


Why the weight of a body is less on the Moon than on Earth?

The weight of a body is less on the Moon than on Earth because the Moon has less mass than Earth, causing weaker gravitational pull. Weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object, so lower gravity on the Moon results in less weight for objects.


Do Objects with more mass have a smaller or greater gravitational force than objects with less mass?

Objects with more mass have a greater gravitational force than objects with less mass. Gravity is directly proportional to mass, so the more mass an object has, the stronger its gravitational pull.


Why do you weigh on earth than on the earth?

There is less gravity on the moon to pull you towards its surface than here on earth. Your mass x gravity(acceleration) = your weight. There is less gravity because the moon has less mass than the earth. All objects with mass have some amount of gravity that pulls them toward other objects with mass. The more mass you have in one spot the greater the pull of gravity there.


Does the Moon's mass being less than the Earth's make objects weigh less on the Moon?

Yes, that is exactly what makes you weigh less on Earth then on the Moon, though your mass hasn't changed, your apparent weight does.


In mass and weight what is less than one?

Mass is the amount of matter. Weight had to do with gravity. Weitht is the force of gravity on mass. Some times we use gravity to measure mass such as a spring scale. That does not mean that gravity and mass are the same thing.


Why do objects that weigh less exert more downwards force than objects that weigh more?

Objects that weigh less exert less downward force due to gravity compared to objects that weigh more. Gravity acts on all objects equally, causing them to fall at the same rate regardless of weight. However, weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object's mass, so objects with more mass will have a greater weight and exert a greater force on a surface when supported.


Do objects with buoyancy have more or less mass?

Objects with buoyancy have the same mass regardless of whether they are submerged or floating. Buoyancy is determined by the weight of the fluid displaced by the object, not the object's mass. Therefore, an object's mass remains constant while its buoyancy changes based on the fluid it is in.


Is the weight-mass of a CD more or less than a kg?

The mass is less than 1 kg.


Why is the weight of an object different on earth and the moon even though the objects mass is the same in both places?

Mass is an intrinsic property of matter, it does not vary. Weight however is variable, it is a measure of the pull of gravity on a mass. As the Moon's gravity is less than that of the Earth, a mass will weigh less on the Moon than it does on the Earth. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Because the mass of the moon is different from the earth's. Also their radii is different. (Note : weight = gravity x mass and gravity = m1 x m2/(r x r)


Why is the weight on earth different than the weight on the moon?

-- Your weight depends on the mass of the other mass to which you are gravitationallyattracted, and also on your distance from its center.-- The mass of the moon is much less than the mass of the Earth.-- The moon's surface is much closer to its center than the Earth's surface is to its center.


An astronaut on the moon has the same mass as she did on earth but has less?

weight due to the moon's weaker gravitational pull. The force of gravity is determined by the mass of the objects involved and the distance between them, so being on the moon, which has less mass than Earth, results in a weaker gravitational force.
