What else can I help you with?
Which requires more fuel -- a rocket going from the Earth to the Moon or a rocket coming from the Moon to Earth?
A rocket traveling from the Earth to the Moon requires more fuel due to Earth's stronger gravitational pull. The rocket needs to overcome Earth's gravity to escape its orbit, which requires a significant amount of energy compared to landing and taking off from the Moon, where the gravitational pull is weaker.
Is gravity canceled closer to the earth or moon?
Earth-Moon GravityThe point at which the gravity of the Earth is counterbalanced by the gravity of the Moon is much closer to the Moon. The stronger gravity of Earth has a greater effect for any given distance.Independent GravityThe Earth's gravity is greater than the Moon's, so the Moon would have a lower escape velocity and a lower possible orbit, even neglecting the fact that it has no atmosphere. Gravity diminishes with distance, so the effective gravity at any given distance from the Moon will be much less than the effective gravity at that distance from the Earth.
What forces need to be overcome to get to the moon?
If you want to get out of the earth, say for example you want to get to the moon, then you will need to escape gravity.
Is the escape velocity higher for the earth or the moon?
The mass of an object is the same wherever it may be. The weight of an object changes however. The weight of an object is the product of its mass times gravity. Gravity is greater on earth than it is on the moon, so an object will weigh more on earth.
Will the earth and the moon join?
Not hardly. The moon is moving away from the Earth at a rate of a few inches per year. In about 25000 years, the moon may have the potential to escape the gravity of the Earth.
What happens to water closest to the moon?
Water on the surface of the moon will rapidly turn to water vapor as there is no atmospheric pressure on the moon. The vapor will then escape the moon's gravity which is much weaker than the gravity on Earth.
How does the moon's gravity compare to Earth's gravity?
The moon's gravity is about 1/6th of Earth's gravity.
Is there gravitiy in the moon?
Yes, there Is gravity on the moon. It is not as strong as the Earth's gravity (it is about 1/6 of the Earth's gravity), but, Yes, the moon does have gravity.
What is The moon has more gravity than the earth.?
"The moon has more gravity than the earth." is a question (about the moon and gravity).
When will the moon leave earths gravity?
The moon will probably never leave the influence of the Earth's gravity completely. This is because although the moon is slowly moving away from the Earth, it only moves about 4 centimeters a year. Considering that theoretically the Earth's gravity reaches out indefinately, it would be impossible for the moon to escape the Earth's gravity completely, so the moon will never leave the Earth's gravity.
Why is gravity on earth and not the moon?
There is gravity on the moon. The moon's gravity is much weaker than Earth's because the moon has less mass.
What percentage of earth gravity?
The moon has one-sixth the gravity of earth.
