If you look up "Moon" on the Wikipedia, you find that it has a surface acceleration of 1.622 m/s2. This is the same as 1.622 newton/kilogram.
Your weight on the moon is about 16.55% of your weight on Earth. If you weigh 200 pounds on Earth, then you'll weigh 33.1 pounds on the moon. Plus, of course, your space suit and all the rest of the gear you have to wear in order to survive on the moon.
On the moon, 10 kg of mass weighs 16.2 newtons (3.65 pounds). (rounded)
The gravitational force is INVERSELY proportional to the SQUARE of the distance; that means that if you change the distance by a factor of "n", the force will change by a factor of "n squared". In this case, 4 x 4 = 16; the force will INCREASE by a factor of 16.
The kinetic energy of an object is proportional to the square of its velocity. Therefore, the ratio of kinetic energies of the two objects would be (32/8)^2 = 16.
A sixteenth is a fraction of a whole, meaning it is a 16th part of something. The weight of a sixteenth would depend on the total weight or quantity being divided into 16 equal parts. For example, if you have 1 pound and divide it into 16 parts, each sixteenth would weigh approximately 0.0625 pounds.
Everything has gravity. Your weight on the moon is about 16 percent of what it is on Earth.
No. As long as you continued to eat your astronaut food and do your astronaut exercises, your weight would remain constant on the moon. But it would only be about 16% of your weight on Earth. Your mass would be the same on the moon as it is on Earth, and would also not change while you're there.
You would weigh about 16 pounds on the moon because the moon's gravity is about 1/6th of Earth's gravity.
To find the weight of a student on the Moon, we can use the fact that the Moon's gravity is approximately 1/6th that of Earth's. If the student's weight on Earth is 420 N, their weight on the Moon would be 420 N ÷ 6, which equals 70 N. Therefore, the student's weight on the Moon would be 70 N.
yes it would change
An astronaut weighing 96 kg on Earth would weigh significantly less on the Moon due to the Moon's weaker gravitational pull. The Moon's gravity is about 1/6th that of Earth's. Therefore, to find the astronaut's weight on the Moon, you would multiply their Earth weight by the Moon's gravity factor: 96 kg × (1/6) ≈ 16 kg. Thus, the astronaut would weigh approximately 16 kg on the Moon.
On earth: 98 newtons (22.1 pounds) On the moon: 16 newtons (3.6 pounds)
Nothing happens to the weight of an object on the moon. It remains constant, at about 16% of what the same object weighs when it's on the Earth.
It's simple, just multiply your weight by .16! (It would be more efficient to use a calculator!)
The weight of the object on Earth is 10 N, which is determined by the gravitational force acting on it. Since the acceleration due to gravity on the Moon is 1/16th that of Earth, we can calculate the weight on the Moon by dividing the Earth weight by 16. Thus, the reading on the spring scale on the Moon would be approximately 0.625 N (10 N / 16).
(Yes. The mass on the moon is 1/81 than it is on Earth.) No I'm sorry but this is incorrect. Mass is a measure of the number of particles you have, i.e how big you are Weight decreases on the moon, as it is a force caused by gravity.
The mass of an object remains constant regardless of location, so the mass on the moon remains 8 kg. The weight on the moon can be calculated using the formula: Weight = mass * acceleration due to gravity. Given that the acceleration due to gravity on the moon is 1/6th that of Earth, the weight on the moon would be 1/6th of the weight on Earth, which is 10 N (60 N * 1/6).
