Bailee explained that when traveling to the moon, he needs to pack light because the weight of objects on the moon is the same as their weight on Earth. The mass of the objects is what changes when the gravitational pull changes. Is Bailee correct in his explanation?(1 point)

Bailee is incorrect. The mass of the objects stays the same, but weight will change.

On the moon, the gravitational pull is weaker than on Earth, which means that while an object's mass remains constant, its weight will be less due to the lower gravity.
