Understanding Moon Gravity

The Moon's surface gravity is about 1/6th (approximately 16.5%) of Earth's gravity. This means if you weigh 60 kg on Earth, you would weigh only about 10 kg on the Moon.

Formula

The calculation is based on the following formula:

Moon Weight = Earth Weight × (Moon Gravity / Earth Gravity)

Moon Weight = Earth Weight × (1 / 6)

Practical Applications

This calculator is useful for:

  • Understanding how weight changes in different gravitational environments.
  • Space enthusiasts who want to calculate their approximate weight on the Moon.
  • Educational purposes to demonstrate the concept of gravity and weight.
