Question

what does body weight less on the moon​

Answer 1

Answer:

First, think about the difference between mass and weight. Mass is the amount of matter an object contains and weight is the measurement of the pull of gravity on the object,” explained Sean Baldridge, doctoral candidate in astrophysics at MU. Mass is measured on a balance which compares the amount of matter in one object with the amount of matter in a second object. The mass of an object will not change if the gravitational pull on the object changes, but the weight of the object will. “For instance, if you measure your mass on Earth and then measure your mass on the moon, your mass will remain the same. But if you measure your weight on the Earth and on the moon, your weight will be far less on the moon because of a weaker gravitational force,” Baldridge said.

An important point to keep in mind is that the weight of an object will vary in proportion to the strength of the gravitational pull on the object. All planets have gravity; however, the strength of gravity is directly related to the mass and the diameter of the planet. The weight of a 22-pound object on Earth would be about 3.7 pounds on the moon.
