Are Earth and Mars the same mass?

No. Mars is a little more than a tenth the mass of Earth.


Why does the sun exert more gravitational force on mars than on earth does?

The sun has more mass than earth.


Why does earth have more mass mars?

There is no particular reason: some planets have more mass than others.


Does earth have stronger or weaker gravity than mars?

The gravitational force exerted at the surface (and above the surface) of Mars is weaker than that here on Earth. The reason: Mars has less mass than earth.


Does mars have stronger grtavity than earth or weaker?

Because Mars is a lot less massive than the Earth. The surface gravity depends on the mass of the planet you are standing on, and since Mars is lighter the surface gravity there will be less than here on Earth.The gravitational force between two objects depends on their mass and the distance between their centers of mass. Mars has a smaller radius than the Earth (which would tend to increase the gravitational force), but it has a much smaller mass than the Earth (which tends to decrease the gravitational force). Combining the two factors, it works out that the surface gravity of Mars is about one-third that on Earth.


What is Mars size compared with Earth?

What connection between the mass of a planet and the number of moons it has?

There is no direct connection between the mass of a planet and the number of moons it has. Mars is less massive than Earth but has twice as many moons as does Earth. Jupiter is more massive than either Mars of Earth and has many more moons that either of them.

Does Earth have more gravity than Mars because it's bigger?

Strictly speaking, no. Earth has stronger gravity because it has more mass than Mars does. Size is a measure of how much space an object occupies. Mass is a measure of how much matter an object contains.


Why does Mercury and Mars have less gravity than Earth?

Why does Mercury and Mars have less gravity than Earth because they both have less mass than does the Earth.


Why is the weight of a buggy less on Mars than on Earth?

The gravity on Mars is less than on Earth, so although the mass of the buggy is the same on Earth and Mars, its weight is different because weight is equal to mass multiplied by the gravitational force. The gravity of Mars is 38 percent less than that of the Earth's. So, something that weighs 100 pound on Earth will weigh 38 pounds on Mars.


What planets have a mass smaller than earth?

Mercury, Venus, Mars
