No GaleleoAdditional answerNobody discovered gravity. Everyone in the world has always been under the influence of gravity, but never thought about it. Newton was the first person to do so.And Galileo did not discover gravity. What he did was to show that two objects of different weights would accelerate under gravity at the same rate. He dropped two objects from the Leaning Tower of Pisa to prove it.
should be option d: both a person and an apple
The force of gravity on a person or object at the surface of a planet is calculated by the product of the mass of the person or object and the gravitational constant acceleration for the planet. For Earth, the gravitational acceleration is 9.8 m / s^2.
Gravity is a force that pulls two objects together. Gravity exists between two objects that have mass. Gravity exists in the whole universe
Weight is the measure of gravity that is holding you down. Mass is how much is being held down. Mass of a person will not change if suddenly they're transported to the moon. The weight, however, will because the pull of gravity is less. So they are related, but not alike.
The measurement will be in terms of force or weight just as the measurement of the force holding a person to the earth is given by their weight.
The acceleration affects the weight of the person and object

If you have a group you can use them! Stand behind a volenteer and have them fall backwards. Explane that gravity pulled that person down. Dont forget to catch them. -amy h
Everything can be affected by gravity, it just needs to be close enough. Even light can be affected by gravity! But I'm not much of a science person, so if you want a more detailed answer, better ask an expert ^^

The gravitation pull will increase relative to the amount of increased mass. The Mass of the Objects The more mass two objects have, the greater the force of gravity the masses exert on each other. If one of the masses is doubled, the force of gravity between the objects is doubled.
Isaac Newton created many of the fundamental ideas of gravity and how it works. He came up with the idea of gravity when he was sitting in his chair and an apple fell. It basically says things with mass are attracted to other things with mass and its equations helped us find, very accurately, the orbits of the planets as well as many other things simply dealing with gravitational attraction.
No. What takes the carrot out of the ground is the force of a person pulling on it. If you were holding the carrot in the air and dropped it, it would fall to the ground, thats gravity. Pulling the carrot out of the ground is all you.
Everything that has mass exerts a gravitational pull on everything else with mass... but gravity is such a weak force that objects need to be huge in order to have any noticable effect. No person will ever be big enough that they can noticably attract objects around them.
gravity is a force that pulls objects towards one another. if one of those objects is very massive compared to the other, as in a person on the surface of the earth, it can seem like gravity is only acting in one direction (it is still acting both ways, but the earth force of gravity exerted on the earth by a person is infinitesimally small.) In the case of fish in the ocean, it might seem like they should be attracted to the surface of the earth, because that's what objects on the surface are attracted to, but really all objects are attracted to the center of the earth, because that is its center of gravity - so there is no reason the fish should be pulled to the surface. On the other hand, the reason fish don't fall to the bottom of the ocean is due in great part to the force of buoyancy.
The first person to find out about gravity was Isaac Newton. He found out about gravity because he was hit on the head by an apple. And then he thought why are objects always falling instead of flying in the air.
