Explanation:
The mass of an object is the amount of matter or ‘stuff’ it contains. The more matter an object contains, the greater its mass. An elephant contains more matter than a mouse, so it has a greater mass.
Mass is measured in kilograms, kg. A 100 kg object has a greater mass than a 5 kg object. An object's mass stays the same wherever it is. So a 5 kg mass on Earth has a 5 kg mass on the Moon.

Answer:
The Moon is smaller and has less mass than the Earth, so its gravitational field strength is only about one-sixth of the Earth's. So, for example, a 120 kg astronaut weighs 1200 N on Earth but only 200 N on the Moon.
