What else can I help you with?
Is there gravity anywhere other than earth?
Yes. All objects have some degree of gravity. So gravity exists everywhere in space.
Why is earth the only planet with gravity?
All objects with mass have gravity, so all planets have gravity. However, the strength of gravity depends on the mass of the planet. Earth's gravity is strong enough to hold objects to its surface, which is why we feel it as weight.
Why do you weigh on earth than on the earth?
There is less gravity on the moon to pull you towards its surface than here on earth. Your mass x gravity(acceleration) = your weight. There is less gravity because the moon has less mass than the earth. All objects with mass have some amount of gravity that pulls them toward other objects with mass. The more mass you have in one spot the greater the pull of gravity there.
How does the curiosity not float away while on Mars?
Just like Earth's gravity holds you to Earth, and doesn't let you float away, Mars, too, has some gravity (less than Earth), which won't simply let objects float away into space.
Is gravity dependent on earth?
No. Gravity is dependent on two factors: the mass of the object in question and the distance from its center of mass. So gravity at Earth's surface is dependent on its mass and radius, and Earth is the dominant gravitational body for some distance, but elsewhere, other objects dominate with their own gravity.
Does gravity acts on some objects only?
Gravity acts similarly on all objects.
Do some objects have no gravity?
All objects with mass have gravity, as gravity is a fundamental force that exists between all objects with mass. However, the strength of gravity can vary depending on the mass of the object and the distance between objects.
What are some interesting facts about gravity?
-- There is a force of gravity between every two objects in the universe. No two objects can ever be so small or so far apart that the force of gravity between them is zero. There is a force of gravity between a hair on your head and a grain of sand on an asteroid in orbit around a star in the farthest galaxy. -- The force of gravity between two objects depends on the 'product' of their masses (one mass multiplied by the other mass), not on either one alone. -- The force of gravity always works both ways at the same time. You pull the earth with the same amount of force that the earth pulls you. Your weight on the earth is the same as the earth's weight on you.
Do you float on the moon?
Yes, objects and people would technically float on the moon due to its weaker gravity compared to Earth. However, since the moon does have some gravity, objects and people would still have some weight and wouldn't be completely weightless.
Do all objects fall to earth at the same time?
Gravity causes all objects to fall to earth at the same time. (some objects do not like paper and yarn because of air resistance. but if you block the air resistance by placing it on a book and dropping, it will fall at the same time. Or if you reduce surface area) Gravity causes all objects to fall with an acceleration of 9.8m/s*2
Why has the earth got gravity and the moon has not?
Basically the question is wrong or the concept of gravity in your brain is wrong, as gravity exists both at moon and earth, but the value of "g" varies as at earth it is 9.81m/s^2, and at moon it is some what around 1.8m/s^2.
Is gravity the natural force that causes objects to move toward the center of the Earth?
yes on any object. Everything has some gravitational force, but the World is so large, making the force strong. That is why you would be lighter on the moon. The moon is smaller therefore less gravity, therefore you weigh less since weight is the amount of gravity acting on the object.
