Why does the moon have no gravity?
It does. Who told you it doesn't? All objects that have mass have gravity. The more mass they have, the more gravity they have. For small objects, the gravity is so weak as to be almost indetectable, even with extremely sensitive instruments. However, the moon's gravity is certainly strong enough to be not merely detectable but to actually physically feel. The moon's mass is about 1/80th that of Earth, but its radius is also quite a bit less; the combination of the two yields a lunar surface gravity of about 1/6 that of Earth.
Why does the weight of an object change when you go to the moon?
Your weight on the moon is one-sixth (1/6) what it is on earth.
How does the gravity of the moon compare to the gravity of earth?
An object on the moon's surface weighs 0.165 as much as it does on the Earth's surface.
What is the difference in an objects weight on earth than on the moon?
On Earth there is gravity pulling objects down and adding weight. On the moon there is no gravity so objects are weightless.
Why does an elephant weigh more on the earth than on the moon?
Earth has more gravity. The elephant's mass will hardly change if you take it to the Moon, and:weight = mass x gravity
What percentage of earth gravity?
The moon has one-sixth the gravity of earth.
Is there gravitiy in the moon?
Yes, there Is gravity on the moon. It is not as strong as the Earth's gravity (it is about 1/6 of the Earth's gravity), but, Yes, the moon does have gravity.
What is The moon has more gravity than the earth.?
"The moon has more gravity than the earth." is a question (about the moon and gravity).
Why is gravity on earth and not the moon?
There is gravity on the moon. The moon's gravity is much weaker than Earth's because the moon has less mass.
How strong is the Moon's gravity compard to that of earth?
Gravity on the Moon is 0.165 that of Earth.
Does the earth's gravity make the moons gravity?
No it doesn't, earth's gravity is only making the moon orbiting the earth not give the moon gravity.
What Gravity on the moon is that of earth gravity.?
The gravity on the moon is 1/6 of what it is on Earth. To put a finer point on it, that's 16.549% of Earth gravity.
Why is it that the earth is not affected by the Moon's gravity?
Earth is affected by the moon's gravity. The moon's gravity exerts just as much force on Earth as Earth's gravity does on the moon, but since Earth is far more massive, it undergoes far less acceleration.
Does earth's gravity pull the moon outward?
No, the Earth's gravity pulls the moon in towards Earth.
How does the moon's gravity compared to earth?
Being smaller, the Moon's gravity is less than that of Earth.
Gravity on the moon is twice bigger then gravity on earth?
False. Gravity on the moon is 1/6 that of Earth.
Why is there less or no gravity on the moon then there is on earth?
There is gravity on the moon. It is about on sixth what it is on Earth. This is because the moon has less mass than Earth does.
