Does gravity affect small objects?
Yes, gravity affects all objects that have mass.
Is The amount of an objects mass affected by gravity?
No. But the weight of that mass depends on the local gravity.
Do gravity affect the weight of an object?
Yes. Mass is constant for a given object. Weight is a function of mass and gravity, stronger gravity more weight.
What affects the force of gravity between two objects?
Mass and distance both affect gravity.
What factors determine the force of gravity between two objects?
the mass of the objects and the distance of the objects
Does increasing an objects mass affect the objects weight if gravity does not change?
yes
How do mass of the objects affect the force of gravity?
The greater the mass, the stronger the gravity, but the distance does not affect the amount of gravity.
Does gravity affect an objects with greater mass weight or both?
Gravity effects heavier objects. In other words the heavier the object is, the more gravity effects the object which makes it heavy.
Does gravity affect small objects?
Yes, gravity affects all objects that have mass.
What objects does gravity affect?
Anything with mass
Is The amount of an objects mass affected by gravity?
No. But the weight of that mass depends on the local gravity.
The pull of gravity on an objects mass is called what?
Its weight
Do gravity affect the weight of an object?
Yes. Mass is constant for a given object. Weight is a function of mass and gravity, stronger gravity more weight.
What two things affect falling objects?
gravity and mass
Does gravity affect weight?
Yes it affects weight, but not mass.
Does the weight of an object affect the motion'?
Strictly speaking weight is the force of gravity acting on an object. It should not be confused with the objects mass. Weight ⇔ force When something is on the moon it weights less but its mass is the same. Something special about gravity is that in the absence of air friction, all objects accelerate down at the same rate irrespective of their weight because as a objects weight increases, so does its mass. Take the equation.. F = ma or (weight of an object) = (its mass) x (its acceleration) When an objects weight doubles so does it mass, so the acceleration does not change.
Why is the mass of an object the same on the moon as it is on earth but the objects weight is different?
That is because Earth has more gravity. Weight = mass x gravity.
