If a student's mass is 40kg on earth, then his mass is 40kg wherever in the universe he goes.

Mass doesn't change. What changes is the gravitational force between each mass and the

other masses in the vicinity of the first one. That force is what we call "weight".

80Kg.

Mass does not change.

Their weight would be another matter. If you weighed 80kg on Earth you would weigh 13.2 kg on the moon.

If an astronaut has a mass of 80 kg on Earth, he will also have a mass of 80 kg on the Moon. In free space, where he doesn't weigh anything, his mass will still be 80 kg.

On the Moon a person's mass (quantity of matter) would be the same as that on earth.

Your weight (attraction due to gravity) however would be less on the moon.

What will be the mass of a person on the moon having a mass of 60kg on the earth?

60 Kg. Mass doesn't change on the moon, weight does.


You weigh 60kg on earth How much would you weigh in a 2g environment?

your weight would be 120 kg but your mass would be 60 kg


What is the mass in kilograms of a 588 in a bulldog?

Since mass = weight/gravity Mass = 588 Gravity = 9.8m/s^2 588/9.8 = 60kg 60kg


A man who weighs 12 kg on moon will weigh on earth?

The kilogram is a measure of mass, not a measure of force. His mass will remain the same (i.e. 60kg) regardless of the gravitational field he is in. But as the moon has a weaker gravitational field than the Earth the bathroom scales that stopped at 60 on the Earth will stop at 10 on the Moon.


What is the mass in kilograms of a 588 N?

Since mass = weight/gravity Mass = 588 Gravity = 9.8m/s^2 588/9.8 = 60kg 60kg


If mass is 30kg what does it mass on earth?

A: The mass would not change: 30kg. A: The Earth would be about 5.9742 × 1024 kg


Does more mass mean more weight?

Only if they are in the same inertial frame of reference. On Earth if a) has a mass of 60kg and b) has a mass of 10kg - then a) would weigh more. If a) was on the Moon and b) stayed on Earth then they would both weigh the same. If b) decided to go to the Sun, then b) would weigh more than a). Mass stays the same no matter where you are. Your weight is deduced by the amount of "pull" gravity has on you.


If a person has a mass of 71kg on earth what would be their mass on the moon be?

11.83 that is the 1/6 of his mass in earth


What fraction of Mar's mass is equal to Earth's mass?

Mars would have to find more mass if it wanted to equal the Earth's. It has only 11% of Earth's mass.


What is your weight on earth if your weight on the moon is 36kg?

There is gravity on the moon! The gravity on the Moon is 1/6th that of what is observed on Earth. An object with a weight of 36 kg on Earth would weigh 1/6th that on the Moon. 1/6th of 36kg is, 6 kg. An object with a MASS of 36 kg on Earth would have the same 36 kg MASS on the moon. Mass is the amount of matter that makes up an object, whereas WEIGHT is the measurement of the force of gravity on that MASS. This is why your weight will change when visiting other planets, but your mass stays constant plant to planet!


What would be the same on earth as the mooon weight or mass?

Mass


If your mass is 68 kg on earth your mass on mars would be?

Your mass would stay the same. Mass is the amount of matter in an object, so your mass would stay at 68kg.
