GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The mass of objects remains constant throughout the universe. This is because an object is made of he same amount of matter (atoms), no matter where you take it in the universe. If you take an object from the Earth to the moon, only the weight will change.

Detailed explanation-2: -The mass of the moon is 1100 times and its radius 14 times that of the earth. As a result, the gravitational attraction on the moon is about one sixth when compared to that on the earth. Hence, the weight of an object on the moon is 16 th of the weight on the earth.

Detailed explanation-3: -Since the moon has significantly less mass than the Earth, it will not pull objects toward itself at the strength that Earth will. This means that if you went to the moon you would weigh less, even though your mass stays the same!

Detailed explanation-4: -If you were standing on the Moon, your mass–or the amount of stuff you’re made of–wouldn’t change. However, your weight would change because the gravity on the Moon is much weaker than it is on Earth.

Detailed explanation-5: -The masses of the earth and moon are 6×1024kg and 7.4×1022kg, respectively. The distance between them is 3.84×105m.
