What else can I help you with?
Does the earth and moon have the same amount of gravitational pull?
No, the earth is bigger than the moon so they don't have the same gravitational pull
How far from the earth is the gravitational pull of the earth the same as the gravitational pull of the moon?
i dont now
Why is your weight less on the moon?
Because the Earth's gravitational pull is stronger than the gravitational pull of the Moon. But your mass remains the same
When is the moon gravition pull the strongest?
The Moon's gravitational pull will be strongest when the Moon is closest to the Earth.The Moon's gravitational pull will be strongest when the Moon is closest to the Earth.The Moon's gravitational pull will be strongest when the Moon is closest to the Earth.The Moon's gravitational pull will be strongest when the Moon is closest to the Earth.
What is the moon's gravitational pull relative to the earth's gravitational pull the moon?
The force of gravitation attracting the earth and moon toward each other is exactly the same force on both bodies.Just as the force of gravitation that attracts you toward the earth is exactly the same as the force that attractsthe earth toward you.
What stops the moon from going to space?
It is captured in orbit around the Earth by the Earth`s gravitational pull. The same as the Earth and the other planets in our solar system are captured by the gravitational pull of the Sun.
Why does our weight change as we move from earth's surface to the moon's?
Because weight is determined by gravitational pull on your mass. The Moon has less gravitational pull than earth so you will weigh less, even though your mass remains the same.
Why does the moon move in in orbit around the earth?
The moon is trapped in the gravitational pull of the earth. The earth and the moon are trapped in the gravitational pull of the sun. It is like whirling a small weight attached to a length of string round your head. The only thing stopping the weight to fly off (into space) is the string - which is the same force of gravitational pull we experience from our orbit round the sun.
Why do you weight less on the moon?
You weigh less on the moon compared to Earth because the moon has less mass and gravity. The gravitational pull on the moon is about 1/6th of that on Earth, so your weight appears to be lighter on the moon.
What the causes of a tide?
Tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the sun and the moon upon the oceans of the world. It matters not what phase the moon is in. It's gravitational pull is always the same. What matters is where it is in it's orbit of the earth. The tides are lowest when the sun and moon are on the opposite side of the earth, and are highest when the 2 are on the same side.
How moon moves?
The moon moves in its orbit around the Earth due to the gravitational force between the two bodies. This orbit is not circular but elliptical, causing the moon's distance from Earth to vary. Additionally, the moon rotates on its axis at the same rate that it orbits the Earth, resulting in the same side of the moon always facing Earth.
How much bigger gravitational pull of moon on the earth compare to sun?
the moons gravitational pull is about 1/10 that of earth. that is why astronauts weigh so little on it. > Standing the same distance from each, with the same mass, the force due to gravity of earth is approx 81 times that of the moon, which incidentally, is also the mass of the earth compared to the moon. > The comparison of gravity on the surface of each: 1 kg mass on the earths surface = 1 kg force / weight 1 kg mass on the moons surface = 1/6 kg force / weight
