Your weight on the moon is one-sixth (1/6) what it is on earth.
What else can I help you with?
What are science facts about weight?
you can measure weight by a scale. weight could change from place to place like if you go to the moon you will weigh less because there is less gravitational pull on you. it basically depends on mass and mass is the amount of matter an object is made of. mass does not change so on the moon your mass does not change it's your weight that changes
How can an objects weight change if its mass does not?
Weight is affected by gravity, while mass does not. On Earth mass and weight are the same, yet on the moon your weight could be 1/6 of its original, while your mass would stay the same no matter where you go.
Does a scale show weight or mass?
It shows the weight, however, by convention we graduate the scale in mass units. The scale is assuming that you are standing on Earth. When you step on a scale the gravity pulls you down, which is called weight. Weight is based on the gravity force. Mass is the amount of stuff inside your body. Which won't change because of gravity. If you go to the moon your weight will be less because the moon has less gravity. Mass will stay the same. Unless you lose one your body parts while on the trip to the moon.
How would your weight and mass change if you go to the moon?
Your mass would remain the same because it's a measure of the amount of matter in your body, but your weight would be less on the moon compared to Earth due to the moon's lower gravity. This is because weight is the measure of the gravitational force acting on an object, and gravity on the moon is about one-sixth that of Earth's.
Explain how are weight and force related?
Weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity. The weight of an object is the product of its mass and the acceleration due to gravity. In other words, weight is the force that pulls an object towards the center of the Earth.
Why does the weight of an object change when you go the moon?
It is because the gravity on the moon is one sixth of the gravity on the Earth

What explain the difference between the mass and the weight of an object?
weight is how heavy an object is; and mass is how much volume an object holds Answer 2 No, the mass is not how much volume ..... Volume and mass are not the same thing. Volume is its size measured in say cubic centimetres or cubic inches, whereas mass is measured in tons or pounds. The difference between mass and weight is that the mass does not change but the weight does (e.g. in outer space an object will have no weight but its mass will still be the same). The effect of this difference is, for example, a body in space may weigh nothing but it will still be able to resist a change in motion (i.e. it has inertia).
Is this true or false the weight of a person can change but the mass stays the same?
That is very true. The mass of something is definite, "the amount of stuff in an object"; However, the weight of something is the pull of gravity on an object. Someone or something's weight can change if, for example, they go to the Moon, or Mars, or any other celestial body with different levels of gravity.
Would your mass change on the moon and why not?
Mass is the measurement of the amount of stuff that makes up an object. Your mass belongs to you. It doesn't depend on where you are, or on anything about the place where you are, or on what's around you. It goes wherever you go and it doesn't change. Your weight is the result of your mass and the other masses in the place where you are, so it changes as you go around visiting different neighborhoods, such as the surface of the moon.
What will happen of your mass if you go up to moon?
Your mass remains the same regardless of where you are in the universe. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, so it doesn't change as you move to different locations. However, your weight would be different on the moon due to its lower gravity compared to Earth.
What would your weight and mass be if your were on the moon?
Your weight on the moon would be about 16.5% of your weight on Earth due to the moon's weaker gravitational pull. However, your mass would remain the same regardless of location, as mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object.

How does your amount of matter change when you go to the moon?
Your mass does not change, but your weight does. This is because weight is a measure of the gravimetric attraction between bodies of matter. Because the moon is less massive than the earth and therefor has a smaller amount of gravity, you will weigh less on the moon.
Would an object have the same weight as it does on Earth as the moon?
No, If you were to go to the moon you would weigh less than you would on earth, that's why it is so easy to jump high on the moon, gravitational pull is weak on the moon! (:
How would your weight and mass change if you go to the moon?
Your mass would remain the same because it's a measure of the amount of matter in your body, but your weight would be less on the moon compared to Earth due to the moon's lower gravity. This is because weight is the measure of the gravitational force acting on an object, and gravity on the moon is about one-sixth that of Earth's.
