Question
With a specific initial velocity, we can jump higher on the moon than on the earth.
✓
Answer
The acceleration due to gravity on the moon is about $\frac{1}{6}$ of that on the earth.
Hence, with a specific initial velocity, we can jump higher on the moon than on the earth.
This can be seen from the equation $h = u^2 /2g$.
