The force of gravity that attracts two objects toward each other
is directly proportional to the mass of each object.
The size of an object does not impact gravity directly. Gravity is determined by the mass of an object and the distance between objects. The larger the mass of an object, the stronger its gravitational pull will be on other objects.
Gravity
Distance. This is because the gravitational field strength, g, is given by the equation: g = GM/R2 where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the body and r is the distance from the centre of the body to the point where g is to be determined. Since the distance is squared, its effect would be 'doubled' ; Hence, it has a greater impact on gravity.
With a fixed mass, if you say double the acceleration due to gravity, you would have to double the force to overcome friction.
The factors affecting the center of gravity include the shape and size of the object, distribution of mass within the object, and external forces acting on the object. The center of gravity will shift based on the position of these factors, which can impact stability and balance.
gravity and how mass is effected by it
Gravity is a force but has no mass.
Gravity depends on the mass of an object. Weight, on the other hand, is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass. So, weight depends on both an object's mass and the strength of gravity acting on it.
You're on to it! Gravity appears to be a property of mass. No mass - no gravity. But exactly what gravity is we don't yet know.
No, mass and gravity are not the same. Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object, while gravity is a force that pulls objects with mass towards each other. Gravity is influenced by the mass of objects.
Yes, weight, or more precisely mass*, does have an impact on force. The impact is something like this: an object moving at a constant speed will have more force than an object traveling at the same speed with less mass.So, more mass equals proportionately more force.*Mass is a direct measurement of the amount of stuff in an object. Weight is the measurement of the apparent force of gravity on an object.
Weight = mass * gravity
