Isis Middleton · Answer 1

No, the mass of the given object will be same on the Earth as well as on the Moon.

Explanation:

The term "mass" is estimation of a given object or a system of objects. It is a totally independent quantity. Thus, its magnitude will not vary while carrying it from one place to another.

No

Explanation:

An objects mass is not affected by gravity. No matter where an object is, it will have the same mass. How much it weighs will change, because gravity will change.
