Question: Earth is about 81 times more massive than the Moon. How will the mass and weight of a rocket on the Moon compare to its mass and weight on Earth?
Answer: The mass will be the same, but its weight will be less on the Moon.
Hypothesis: the rocket will weigh less but have the same mass on the moon than on earth
Supporting facts: sent1: less is the opposite of more sent2: as distance from an object decreases , the pull of gravity on that object increases sent3: gravity is a kind of force sent4: a moon is a kind of celestial object sent5: a rocket is a kind of object sent6: mass is a property of objects / matter sent7: earth is a kind of celestial object sent8: as the force of gravity decreases , the weight of the object will decrease sent9: weight is the force of gravity acting on an object sent10: as the mass of a planet / of a celestial object decreases , the surface gravity of that planet / of that celestial object weakens sent11: as the force of gravity changes , the weight of the object will change sent12: mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object sent13: weight means the force of gravity acting on an object sent14: if there is no gravitational pull , then the weight of an object will be equal to zero sent15: the mass of a planet causes the pull of gravity on that planet sent16: as state of matter changes , mass will not change sent17: weight is a property of objects / matter sent18: gravity causes orbits sent19: phase changes do not change mass sent20: as the force of gravity changes , the mass of the object will stay the same sent21: the earth has more mass than the moon sent22: gravity / gravitational force causes objects that have mass / substances to be pulled down / to fall on a planet sent23: moons orbit planets sent24: as the mass of a celestial object decreases , the surface gravity of that celestial object weakens sent25: the gravitational force of a celestial object does not change the mass of an object on that planet or celestial body
Reasoning: [BECAUSE] as the mass of a celestial object decreases , the surface gravity of that celestial object weakens [AND] the gravitational force of a celestial object does not change the mass of an object on that planet or celestial body [INFER] int1: as the mass of celestial object decreases, the mass of the object on the celestial object will stay the same [BECAUSE] as the mass of a celestial object decreases , the surface gravity of that celestial object weakens [AND] as the force of gravity decreases , the weight of the object will decrease [INFER] int2: as the mass of a celestial object decreases, the weight of an object on that celestial object will decrease [BECAUSE] the earth has more mass than the moon [AND] a moon is a kind of celestial object [AND] earth is a kind of celestial object [INFER] int3: earth as a celestial object has more mass than the moon as a celestial object [BECAUSE] int3 [AND] less is the opposite of more [INFER] int4: the moon as a celestial object has less mass than earth as a celestial object [BECAUSE] int1 [AND] int2 [AND] int4 [INFER] int5: an object will weigh less but have the same mass on the moon than on earth [BECAUSE] int5 [AND] a rocket is a kind of object [INFER] int6: the rocket will weigh less but have the same mass on the moon than on earth
