Prior to Einstein, Newton's theory did a great job explaining many of the effects of gravity. Newton's theory, however, didn't offer any explanation of what gravity actually is. Einstein's theory offers some understanding of what gravity is. According to him, an object's mass warps space-time in certain ways, and the pull is an object's reaction to this warp. Newton's equations do not exclude the possibility of instantaneous extension of the gravitational field; Relativity accounts for the impossibility of instantaneous extension of the gravitational field.

Use Newtons equation for this

It is F=G then you put M1 times M2 over d squared right next to it

d is the distance between the two objects you want to measure so your height halfed and then the radius of the earth

-- the force with which the object attracts the Earth

--also the force with which the Earth attracts the object, typically called the object's "weight"

on the Earth, but also equal to the weight of the Earth on the object.

The basic answer is "weight", which = mass x acceleration due to gravity. The mass of an object stays constant.

What object changes mass of an object when the pull of gravity changes?

The mass of an object doesn't depend on the gravitational force on the object.


Any push or pull that changes an object's motion?

Gravity


What is it called when object changes when the pull of gravity changes?

Not quite sure what you mean; the pull of gravity will only change if either (a) the mass of either of the two interacting objects changes, or (b) the distance changes.


When gravity changes the of an object changes?

depend on how big or small the object is, the greater the more gravtational pull it has, smaller the object is less gravatational pull it has. if the object changes mass well that when the gravitatonal pull becomes either stronger or weaker, but all depends.

The what of an object changes if the force of gravity changes?

The weight of the object would change if gravity changes. cw: Yes, if the FORCE of gravity changes, the FORCE of the object in the downward direction changes.


What is the relationship of gravity and mass?

Gravity measures the pull upon an object. The more mass an object has, the more weight it will have. Mass is a SET number. It will never change unless your substance/ object changes. weight changes depending on your altitude and what planet you are on. (Not meant as a joke. It is why astronauts have to jump on the moon, because it has such a low gravitational pull (compared to the Earth).

Is the force of gravity the same on an object fifty miles above the earth?

Yes. Gravity is a constant force. It never changes as long as you are within it's pull.
