Your weight gets less (because the Moon is smaller than the Earth and therefore gravity on the moon is less than on the Earth) but your mass (and therefore your inertia) remain the same.
example if you weighed 100 pounds on earth you would weigh 17 pounds on the moon (The moons gravity is 17% of earths)
The mass of an astronaut remains the same on the moon as it does on Earth. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and does not change based on location. However, the astronaut's weight would be less on the moon due to the moon's lower gravitational force compared to Earth.
Weight.
Your mass stays the same as if you were on Earth. Your weight will change which is the effect of gravity on your mass. Since the Moon is less dense than the Earth it has a small gravitational pull. This allows you to feel lighter on the Moon. You can jump higher on the Moon and takes longer to fall.
Your weight on the moon would be about 16.5% of your weight on Earth due to the moon's weaker gravitational pull. However, your mass would remain the same regardless of location, as mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object.
Mass is a constant everywhere in the universe. The weight on the moon is about one sixth of the weight on the earth, because the mass of the moon is about one sixth of the mass of the earth reducing the force of gravity.
Your mass (and inertia) are the same on the Moon as they are on Earth. However your weight on the Moon will be less than when you are on Earth. This is because MASS is an intrinsic property of matter while weight is caused by your local gravity field.

you dont have weight on the moon !
Weight.
The mass of the object, the mass of the object that is attracting it and the distance between their centres of gravity.So your weight on the moon will depend on your mass, the moon's mass and the distance from your centre of gravity to the moon's.The mass of the object, the mass of the object that is attracting it and the distance between their centres of gravity.So your weight on the moon will depend on your mass, the moon's mass and the distance from your centre of gravity to the moon's.The mass of the object, the mass of the object that is attracting it and the distance between their centres of gravity.So your weight on the moon will depend on your mass, the moon's mass and the distance from your centre of gravity to the moon's.The mass of the object, the mass of the object that is attracting it and the distance between their centres of gravity.So your weight on the moon will depend on your mass, the moon's mass and the distance from your centre of gravity to the moon's.
Mass and weight are two different things. Mass does not change, but weight changes depending on the gravity acting on the item. An elephant has the same mass on Earth, the Moon, or when weightless in orbit. The weights in each of those location will vary greatly.
There is gravity on the moon! The gravity on the Moon is 1/6th that of what is observed on Earth. An object with a weight of 36 kg on Earth would weigh 1/6th that on the Moon. 1/6th of 36kg is, 6 kg. An object with a MASS of 36 kg on Earth would have the same 36 kg MASS on the moon. Mass is the amount of matter that makes up an object, whereas WEIGHT is the measurement of the force of gravity on that MASS. This is why your weight will change when visiting other planets, but your mass stays constant plant to planet!
Your mass stays the same as if you were on Earth. Your weight will change which is the effect of gravity on your mass. Since the Moon is less dense than the Earth it has a small gravitational pull. This allows you to feel lighter on the Moon. You can jump higher on the Moon and takes longer to fall.
So if you take your weight then divide it by 6.13 that is your on the moon and your mass stays the same.
Your weight on the moon would be about 16.5% of your weight on Earth due to the moon's weaker gravitational pull. However, your mass would remain the same regardless of location, as mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object.
Your weight . . . the weight of anything on Luna, our moon, is a sixth of its weight on Earth.
Because mass is not the same as weight. Weight is mass times gravity so your weight will change if you are on the earth or moon but your mass will stay the same.
