Is volume on moon different from on earth?
Yes, the volume of the Moon is much smaller than that of the Earth. The Moon is about 2% of Earth's volume.
What is the size difference of the earth and the moon?
In rough rounded figures . . . -- The moon's diameter is 27.3% the size of the Earth's diameter. -- That makes the moon's surface area 7.5% the size of Earth's surface area. -- And it makes the moon's volume 2% the size of the Earth's volume. -- The moon's mass is 1.23% the size of the Earth's mass. (When we notice that the moon has 2% of Earth's volume but only 1.23% its mass, we realize immediately that the moon's average density is only 60% of the Earth's average density.)
Would an object have the same mass density on the moon as it does on earth?
No, the mass density of an object would not be the same on the moon as on Earth. The mass of the object would remain the same, but since the gravitational pull on the moon is weaker than that on Earth, the volume of the object would decrease on the moon, resulting in a different mass density calculation compared to Earth.
Does your density change on the moon?
Density depends on mass and volume. Neither of those quantities changes when you move to the moon ... (as long as you stay in an environment where you can survive, like a landing vehicle or a space suit. Exposed to an airless environment, sad to say you would probably expand like a balloon, meaning that your volume would increase and your density would decrease, until ... oh it's too horrible to contemplate.)
Where would you have less matter earth or the moon?
The Earth has more matter than the moon. The Earth has a much larger mass and volume, containing a diverse range of elements and compounds. In comparison, the moon has a much smaller mass and volume, primarily composed of rock and dust.
Is volume on moon different from on earth?
Yes, the volume of the Moon is much smaller than that of the Earth. The Moon is about 2% of Earth's volume.
How many moon does it goes into the earth?
Earth has about 50 times the volume of the Moon (and 81 times the mass of the Moon).
Is the moon 1.80th of earth?
If you mean 1/80, that would refer to the Moon's mass - it is about 1/80. of the Earth's mass. The Moon's diameter, on the other hand, is about 1/4 of the Earth's diameter; this would make the Moon's volume about 1/64 (1/4 cubed) of the Earth's volume.
How does the Moon's size compares to earths size?
The volume of the Moon is 2% compared to the Earth. You would need 81 objects with the mass of the Moon to match the mass of the Earth.
How is the moon larger than the earth?
-- The earth's diameter (distance through the center) is about 3.7 times the moon's diameter. -- The earth's surface area is about 13.5 times the moon's surface area. -- The earth's volume is about 49.5 times the moon's volume. -- The earth's mass is about 82 times the moon's mass.
What is the mass of the moon in cubic miles?
A cubic mile is a unit of volume, not of mass. Mass is measured in kilograms, pounds, or tonnes.
What do you mean by mass of the moon?
Mass of the Moon is measured in Kg. (7.3477×1022 kg) .. the same as weight. Volume(size) is mesured in cubic Kilometers. (the Moon > 2.1958×1010 km3.
What is the density of a moon rock that has a volume of 150 cubic centimeters and a mass of 350 grams?
density = mass/volume = 350/150 = 2.33 grams/cubic centimeter
How do the sun and earth compare in size?
One can compare the size of the Sun, Moon and Earth in more than one way, but comparing Mass and volume are probably the most informative.Below this answer are the numbers for the mass and volume of each as well as the ratios to see how they compare, but it is probably worthwhile to put a few of these quantities into words first.The Moon's mass is just over 1% of the mass of the whole Earth.The Moon's volume is almost 2% of the volume of the Earth since it is a little less dense than the Earth.The Sun is a lot less dense (on average) than the Earth, about 140% the density of water and half as dense as the Moon.Even so, the Sun has 27 million times the mass of the Moon and 333,000 times the mass of the Earth.One hears people say that you could fit a million Earths into the Sun and by that they mean that the volume of the Sun is more than a million times greater than the Earth (1.3 million).Since the volume of the Earth is 49 times the volume of the moon, that means you could fit 64 million Moons inside the Sun!Below are the actual numbers.Mass:Mass Values: (10^24 kg = one trillion trillion kilograms)Moon Mass: 0.0735 x 10^24 kgEarth Mass: 5.974 x 10^24 kgSun Mass: 1,989,100 x 10^24 kgMass ComparisonSun/Earth: The Sun has 333,000 times the mass of the Earth.Earth/Moon: The Earth has 81times the mass of the Moon.Sun/Moon: The Sun has 27,073,171 times the mass of the Moon.Volume Values: (10^12 km^3 =trillion cubic kilometers)Moon Volume: .022 x 10^12 km^3Earth Volume: 1.08 x 10^12 km^3Sun Volume: 1,412,000 x 10^12 km^3Volume Comparison:Sun/Earth: The Sun has 1,304,000 times the volume of the Earth.Earth/Moon: The Earth has 49.3 times the volume of the Moon.Sun/Moon: The Sun has 64,236,453 times the volume of the Moon.

In rough rounded figures . . . -- The moon's diameter is 27.3% the size of the Earth's diameter. -- That makes the moon's surface area 7.5% the size of Earth's surface area. -- And it makes the moon's volume 2% the size of the Earth's volume. -- The moon's mass is 1.23% the size of the Earth's mass. (When we notice that the moon has 2% of Earth's volume but only 1.23% its mass, we realize immediately that the moon's average density is only 60% of the Earth's average density.)
What is the equation for mass volume and density?
Mass = Density x Volume Density = Mass/Volume Volume = Mass/Density
Why is the mass of an object the same on the moon as it is on earth but the weight is different?
The reason is because the mass is like the volume and the weight is like how heavy an object is.
