On my science test, there is a bonus question that i want to get right. why would it be a bad idea to skydive on the moon? hint: it has nothing to do with gravity. get back to me about it.

Because there is no air resistance

Explanation:

When an object falls on Earth, there are essentially two forces acting on it:

- The force of gravity, downward, equal to the weight of the object:

where m is the mass and g the acceleration due to gravity

- The air resistance, F, which acts upward, and whose magnitude is generally proportional to v, the speed of the object

When the object starts its fall, its initial speed is zero: v = 0, so the air resistance is also zero: F=0, and the object accelerates downward due to gravity.

However, as it accelerates downward, its speed increases, and so does the air resistance F. However, F is upward, opposite to the direction of motion, therefore it reduces the net acceleration of the object; at a certain point, the magnitude of the air resistance will become equal to the weight, so that

mg = F

and at that point, the net acceleration of the object will become zero: this means that the object will continue its fall at a constant velocity, called terminal velocity.

On the Moon instead, there is no air resistance: this means that for an object falling down, the speed keeps increasing due to the effect of gravity, and it will never reach a terminal value: therefore, the final velocity at the impact will be much higher than on the Earth, if we assume the two objects have been dropped from a very high altitude from the surface.

as we know our atmosphere or air have different levels. every level has other gasses, and every gas has another permeability. when the light comes from lower permeability to higher permeability, it changes its direction. so that means that when the light comes from the moon to the earth, it changes it's direction many more times. it basically means that the shape of the light part of the moon is changed on the earth.
