What if your weight on the moon would be what fraction of your weight on the earth?

What would be the weight of a 10 kg object on the Moon and on Earth?
On earth: 98 newtons (22.1 pounds) On the moon: 16 newtons (3.6 pounds)
Does a 20kg object have the same weight on earth as it does the moon?
No. On Earth, each kilogram weighs about 9.8 newtons. On the Moon, the weight of each kilogram is about 1/6 of what it is on Earth.
Why will a person's mass never change whether they are on earth or on the moon?
Because mass is not the same as weight. Weight is mass times gravity so your weight will change if you are on the earth or moon but your mass will stay the same.
What is weight equal to 2240lb?
A pound (lb) is a measure of mass which is not the same as weight. An oject with a mass of 2240 pounds on earth would have a mass of 2240 pounds on the moon. But the weight of the object would be only one sixth on the moon. A mass of 2240 lb is equivalent to an Imperial ton.
What would a persons weight be on the moon if they weigh 150 pounds on earth?
A person who weighs 150 pounds on Earth would weigh approximately 25 pounds on the moon, as the moon's gravity is about 1/6th of Earth's gravity.
Why is a persons weight different on earth than on the moon?
The gravity is less on the Moon, because the Moon is smaller than earth; it has less mass, and therefore "sucks" less than the earth. Weight is gravity times mass, you have the same mass on Earth and on the Moon (and in space), but weigh less on the moon.
Would you have the same weight on earth as on the moon?
no. Your weight would be 1/6 what it is on earth because the moon has 1/6 the gravity
If your weight was 40kg how much would you weigh on the moon?
Your weight on the moon would be about 1/6th of your weight on Earth. So, if you weigh 40kg on Earth, on the moon you would weigh approximately 6.67kg.
What age and weight would you be if you were on the moon?
You would be the same age if you were on the moon. Your weight would be approximately 1/7 of your weight here on Earth.
What happens to a persons weight on the moon as opposed to the earth?
It becomes lighter due to less gravitational pull
What is weight in kg on the moon if you weigh 545 newtons?
Your weight on the moon would be approximately one-sixth of your weight on Earth. So, if you weigh 545 newtons on Earth, you would weigh around 91 newtons on the moon.
If you weight sixty pounds on Earth what would you weight on the Moon?
You weigh 10 pounds on the Moon.
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 is the weight of an object on the moon compared to the earth?
The weight of an object on the moon is about 1/6th of its weight on Earth. This is because the moon's gravity is weaker than Earth's gravity. So, if an object weighs 60 pounds on Earth, it would weigh about 10 pounds on the moon.
How would a rock's weight on the Moon or the Sun compare to its weight on Earth?
A rock would weigh less on the Moon than on Earth due to the Moon's lower gravity. On the Sun, a rock would weigh significantly more due to the Sun's much stronger gravitational pull compared to Earth.
How would a rocks weight on the moon or the sun compare to its weight on earth?
It would weigh less on the Moon and more on the Sun.
