A 5.0kg mass would have the same mass on both Earth and the moon. However, on Mercury, due to its different gravitational pull compared to Earth and the moon, the mass would still be 5.0kg, but it would weigh less on Mercury than on Earth or the moon.
Your mass would remain 82kg on Mercury since mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and does not change based on location. However, your weight would be different on Mercury due to the planet's lower gravity compared to Earth.
The planet Mercury has no weight, as this would be expressed within a gravitational field. The mass of Mercury is estimated as 3.3 ×10²³ kilograms (only about 5.5% of Earth's mass).The element Mercury has a density of 13.5 grams/ml (13.5 grams/cm3).
Mercury is about 0.055 times the mass of Earth, so Earth is approximately 18 times heavier than Mercury.
If you are referring to mass, then the percentage would be: Mercury = 0.330x1024kg Earth = 5.97 x1024kg Percentage = mercury/earth = 0.330x1024kg/5.97 x1024kg *100 = 5.5% If you are referring to diameter, the percentage would be: Mercury = 4879km Earth = 12,756km Percentage = mercury/earth = 4879km/12,756km *100 = 38.2%
On Mercury, the gravitational force is about 38% of what it is on Earth. So, a mass of 38 kg on Earth would weigh approximately 14.44 kg on Mercury.
Your mass would still be 50kg on the moon because mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, which does not change with location. However, your weight would be different on the moon due to the weaker gravitational pull compared to Earth.
The force created on a mass of 50kg is equal to the mass multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity. On Earth, this force is approximately 490 Newtons (50kg * 9.81 m/s^2).
Your mass would remain 82kg on Mercury since mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and does not change based on location. However, your weight would be different on Mercury due to the planet's lower gravity compared to Earth.
If you had a 50kg weight on Earth, it would weigh ~zero on the space station. It would still have a mass of 50kg--meaning it would difficult to move, and hurt very bad if it wumped you on the head, but placed on a scale, it would show 0. Likewise, if you had that 50kg weight and a scale on an elevator here on Earth, the scale would read 50kg. Say at the top of a 100 floor building, the elevator's cable and safety devices broke and the elevator, you, the 50kg weight and the scale were all in free fall. For a very short time, the 50kg weight would weigh zero. You would weigh zero. The scale would weigh zero. Until the elevator hit the ground.
The planet Mercury has no weight, as this would be expressed within a gravitational field. The mass of Mercury is estimated as 3.3 ×10²³ kilograms (only about 5.5% of Earth's mass).The element Mercury has a density of 13.5 grams/ml (13.5 grams/cm3).
The weight of an object is the force of gravity acting on it. On Earth, the weight of a 50kg astronaut would be approximately 490N (using the formula weight = mass x gravity, where gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s^2).
Mercury has a mass of 0.33x1024kg, and Earth has a mass of 5.97x1024kg. Thus, Mercury has a smaller mass than earth (or, in other words, Earth has a mass that's about 18x greater than that of Mercury).
Mercury is about 0.055 times the mass of Earth, so Earth is approximately 18 times heavier than Mercury.
Your weight would be significantly less on the moon compared to Earth because the moon has only about 1/6th the gravity of Earth. Therefore, you would weigh much less on the moon due to the weaker gravitational pull.
If your mass is 50 kg, then you weigh about 18 pounds on the moon, about 39.6 pounds on Mars, about 110 pounds on earth, and exactly zero while you're coasting through space at constant speed on your way from one of them to another. Your 50kg doesn't change. That's your 'mass', not your weight.
If you are referring to mass, then the percentage would be: Mercury = 0.330x1024kg Earth = 5.97 x1024kg Percentage = mercury/earth = 0.330x1024kg/5.97 x1024kg *100 = 5.5% If you are referring to diameter, the percentage would be: Mercury = 4879km Earth = 12,756km Percentage = mercury/earth = 4879km/12,756km *100 = 38.2%
On Mercury, the gravitational force is about 38% of what it is on Earth. So, a mass of 38 kg on Earth would weigh approximately 14.44 kg on Mercury.
