Does gravity depend on mass or weight?

well weight depends on mass and gravity so gravity depends on mass. e.g weight=mass X gravity


What is a measure of the effect gravity has upon a mass?

The more mass an object has, the more gravity acts on it. Mass actually is known to affect weight because they both depend on each other. =============================== HONK! Beulah the Buzzer has an objection to raise. Mass does not depend on weight. "Weight" is the name we give to the gravitational force acting on a mass.


On what factors does the weight of an object depend?

Gravity and Mass


What factors does the weight of an object depend?

Mass and gravity


The mass of an object is fixed but its weight varies from location to location?

Because, mass does not depend on gravity factor whereas weight depend on gravity factor. W=mg


How are weight and mass affected by gravity?

Mass is not affected by gravity. Weight is the result of the force of gravity acting on mass.


Is a mass or weight determined by gravity?

[ Mass ] is a property of the object, and doesn't depend on the presence or strength of gravity.[ Weight ] is the result of gravity, and changes depending on the local strength of gravity.


What two factors does the weight of an object depend?

Mass and gravity


Does density of an object depend on the gravity of the object?

Density is not affected by gravity. Density is affected by mass and volume, such that density = mass/volume. Weight, but not mass, is affected by gravity. Weight and mass are not the same thing.


What are the 3 factors of weight?

The mass of the object, the mass of the object that is attracting it and the distance between their centres of gravity.So your weight on the moon will depend on your mass, the moon's mass and the distance from your centre of gravity to the moon's.The mass of the object, the mass of the object that is attracting it and the distance between their centres of gravity.So your weight on the moon will depend on your mass, the moon's mass and the distance from your centre of gravity to the moon's.The mass of the object, the mass of the object that is attracting it and the distance between their centres of gravity.So your weight on the moon will depend on your mass, the moon's mass and the distance from your centre of gravity to the moon's.The mass of the object, the mass of the object that is attracting it and the distance between their centres of gravity.So your weight on the moon will depend on your mass, the moon's mass and the distance from your centre of gravity to the moon's.


In 0 gravity the mass of an object comes to be not defines than how can the mass of an object come constant everywhere?

Mass does not depend on gravity. At zero gravity the object will have the same mass as at a higher gravity. What changes is the object's weight. The fact that the object still has mass can be ascertained from its inertia - it will take a force to make it move, or to stop it.Mass does not depend on gravity.

Is gravity determined by mass or size or both?

Since gravity is basically a force then, it is determined by both mass and size. Also weight.
