Why is the mass of an object the same on the moon as it is on earth but the objects weight is different?
That is because Earth has more gravity. Weight = mass x gravity.
How do you change an object's mass on earth to its mass on the moon?
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.
If an object has a mass of 70 kg and a weight of 686 N on Earth what would the object's mass and weight on Jupiter be?
Your mass is always the same.
Why can an objects weight vary with location but its mass cannot?
Mass is an inherent property of an object and it does not change. Most commonly, we weigh objects on the earth. An object's weight depends on the attraction by gravity to another object. The formula for weight on the earth is weight = (a constant) x (mass of object) x (mass of earth)/(d-squared) where d = distance between center of mass of object and center of mass of earth d-squared is the distance d, raised to the second power. A person weighs slightly less on the top of a mountain than they weigh at sea level. Because moon's mass is only about one-sixth the mass of the earth, the weight of a man on the moon is about 1/6 of his weight on the earth.
Weight of earth in scientific notation?
The concept of the weight of the earth makes no sense. The weight of an object on earth is the force of the earth's gravity acting on that object's mass. The earth's gravity does not exert a force on itself. The earth does not have a weight in the context of the sun because it is in free-fall in its orbit around the sun. The mass of the earth is 5.97*1024 kilograms.
Will the mass of an object be the same on Earth as it is on the moon?
Yes, but the weight of that mass will be different.
Why is the mass of an object the same on the moon as it is on earth but the weight is different?
The reason is because the mass is like the volume and the weight is like how heavy an object is.
Why is the mass of an object the same on the moon as it is on earth but the objects weight is different?
That is because Earth has more gravity. Weight = mass x gravity.
Why is there a difference in an object's weight on Earth and on the Moon?
The difference in weight of an object on Earth and on the Moon is due to gravity. Earth has a stronger gravitational pull compared to the Moon, which makes objects weigh more on Earth. Gravity is directly proportional to mass, so the larger mass of Earth compared to the Moon results in a stronger gravitational pull on Earth.
Why is the mass of an object the same on the moon as it is on the earth but the objects weight is different.?
The reason is because the mass is like the volume and the weight is like how heavy an object is.
Would a mass of a solid of g have same weight on earth?
Yes, the mass of a solid in grams would be the same on Earth, as mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. However, the weight of the object would be different on Earth compared to other celestial bodies, as weight is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass.
What factors affect the weight of an object on Earth?
The weight of an object on Earth is influenced by the mass of the object and the acceleration due to gravity. Weight is calculated by multiplying an object's mass by the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s^2 on Earth). Therefore, variations in either mass or gravity can affect an object's weight on Earth.
Why is the of an object the same on the moon as it is on earth but the objects weight is different?
The reason is because the mass is like the volume and the weight is like how heavy an object is.
Does the gravitational force affect measuring the weight and mass of an object on earth and mars?
A different amount of gravitational force will change the weight, but not the mass.
Is weight a mass?
No. "Mass" is the stuff an object is made of, and never changes."Weight" is the force of gravity between the object and another mass.Weight depends on what the other mass is, and how far the object is from it.That's why the same mass has different weights on the earth and moon.
What will be different on Saturn your mass or your weight why?
Mass is a property of the object, no matter what else is around. It doesn't change, regardless of where the object is. Weight is the result of gravitational interaction between the object and something else, so it depends on what else is around. Your weight on Saturn would be different from your weight on Earth, because Saturn's mass is different from Earth'smass, and your distance from Saturn's center would be different from the distance between you and Earth's center.
What happens to the mass and weight of an object if it is transported to another planet?
The mass of the object remains the same since it is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, but the weight changes because weight is dependent on gravity, which varies from planet to planet. If the gravitational force on the new planet is different than on Earth, the weight of the object will be different.
