Because earth is a larger planet than the moon, it has a stronger gravity.
Bigger the planet > Stronger the gravity.
That is the rule. Since our moon is a much smaller planet, it has weak gravity, and so the object is not being pulled down as hard, so it reduces the overall mass.
What else can I help you with?
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 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.
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.
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)
Why is the mass of an object the same on the moon as it is on earth but the objects weight is diffrent?
Because the force of gravity exerting on objects on the moon is much lower than that of the earth.
Why does object have a different weight on the moon than it does on earth?
the earth and moon have different values for the acceleration due to gravity.
Why does an object have different weight on the moon than it does on earth?
the earth and moon have different values for the acceleration due to gravity.
Why is the weight of an object on the moon different from that on earth?
Because there is less gravity on the moon
Why is the weight of an object on the moon different from from the earth?
Because there is less gravity on the moon
Why is the weight of an object different on earth and the moon?
Because of the gravity.
Why the weight of an object is different on Earth and the moon?
Because of the gravity.
Why is the weight of an object different on earth than on the moon?
Weight is the force acting on an object due to gravity. The weight of an object varies based on the strength of the gravitational pull, which is weaker on the moon compared to Earth. Therefore, an object will weigh less on the moon than on Earth.
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.
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.
How does the weight of an object on earth compare with it's weight on the moon?
On the Earth, the object weighs 6.04 times as much as its weight on the moon.
What is the weight of a 10-kg object on the Moon compared to its weight on Earth?
The weight of a 10-kg object on the Moon would be approximately 1/6th of its weight on Earth. This is because the gravitational pull on the Moon is about 1/6th that of Earth's gravity.
What is the gravitational weight difference between the moon and earth?
The weight of an object on the moon's surface is 16.3% of the same object's weight on the earth's surface.
