How does the mass of an object on earth compare with the mass of the same object on the moon?
there is no change in the mass of body
What is the mass of 1000 kilograms on the moon?
1000kg. Mass is an inherent property of an object. It is not affected by where the object is.
What is the mass of a 12 kg object on the moon?
If the object's mass is 12 kg, then it's 12 kg. On Earth, on the moon, on Mars, or floating weightless in a space ship coasting from one of them to another. Weight depends on where you are, but mass doesn't.
Why is the mass of an object same on the moon as it is on earth but the weight is different?
Mass is the amount of matter in an object. It does not change based on gravity. Weight is the force an object exerts 'downward' due to gravitational acceleration. Force = (mass)*(acceleration). Acceleration due to gravity is less on the Moon than on Earth.
Mass for 230 pounds?
