If I have recently moved to the moon where the acceleration is 1.6m/s2 I think that catching a softball would be different. For starters the ball wouldn't come back down as hard because the gravitational pull isn't as hard. Also it would take less force to throw the softball.

You're right it would take less force to throw the ball, but do you know why? Think about the relationship between force and mass. Is it direct or inverse?
