They are not the same, because they are completely different concepts. They are more or less proportional - a mass of one kilogram will have a weight of approximately 9.8 Newton - because the gravity is more or less the same on different parts of the Earth: whether you are at the North Pole, or the Equator, the distance from the center of the Earth won't change much.
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.
That is because Earth has more gravity. Weight = mass x gravity.
Your mass is always the same.
The object's mass is the same wherever it is. Mass doesn't change. What changes is the object's weight.The weight depends on what other mass happens to be nearby.When you know the object's weight on earth, multiply that by 0.1633 to find its weight on the moon.If you don't need it that close, it might be easier to just divide the earth weight by 6.
45 kg. The same. Your mass doesn't change on which planet you're on, but your weight does.
Mass is a constant everywhere in the universe. The weight on the moon is about one sixth of the weight on the earth, because the mass of the moon is about one sixth of the mass of the earth reducing the force of gravity.
Universality is a fundamental principle in physics - the same laws of physics apply everywhere at all times. So if the mass of something on earth is zero (such as the rest mass of a photon), then the mass will be zero everywhere in the universe, disregarding the effects of relativistic mass. Do not confuse mass with weight - mass is invariable - it is the same everywhere. Weight, however, diminishes in proportion to the square of the distance you travel away from the center of planet earth.
Not quite. It explains why they have no weight. But their mass doesn't change.It's the same on earth, on the moon, and everywhere in between.
Mass stays the same everywhere, while weight can vary depending on the acceleration due to gravity at a particular location.
The question isn't quite right. Wherever you go on earth, there is mass. Weight changes, however. I think it helps to know the fundamentals to understand this. Mass causes gravity, and gravity causes weight. If you were at the center of the earth, the gravity from the mass would pull you equally in all directions, and you would be weightless. Weight is the measurable effect of mass.

The mass of an object will remain the same regardless of its location. So, the mass of an object that is 60 units on Earth will also be 60 units on the moon.
No. Mass is the weight of an object on earth. Scientists use mass instead of weight so the measurements will be the same everywhere. For example A big ballon has a relatively lower mass than a small sized stone
The same as it is on Earth and everywhere else for that matter. Your mass doesn't change.
Mass remains the same; weight will be one half that of the same mass on earth.
Weight does not change with location, as weight is a measure of the gravitational force acting on an object and is the same everywhere on Earth. However, an object's mass remains constant regardless of location.
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.
