Without_gravity_there_would_be_no_motion."

The pull of gravity between two objects depends on more than just the objects. Gravity's effect also depends on the distance between the objects. objects that are closer together have a greater attraction between them. The attraction is weaker when they are farther apart. Gravity exists wherever there is mass, such as in stars and planets.The gravity of each of these objects affects other objects in space.Earth's gravity, for example, reaches millions and millions of kilometers into space.It grows weaker the farther away from Earth you get. Recall that because the moon is less massive than Earth, an astronaut standing on the moon weighs only one-sixth as much as on Earth.The astronaut's weight would change between Earth and the moon.The effect of Earth's gravity becomes less as the distance from Earth increases.

Gravity is completely responsible for planetary motion. The shape and size of

each orbit, and the speed of the planet at every point in its orbit, taken along

with the mass of the sun, are completely determined by the behavior of gravity.

The effect of gravity on motion is that the faster you go the more gravity will take effect on you.

For an example, as a metor enters the Earth's atmosphere, it catches it's gravity. And as it meets air, the friction makes it really hot and it burns up.

Gravity keeps the planets in their orbits. They all have forward speed, but gravity makes them keep curving inwards towards the Sun so that they just go round and round all the time.

Projectile motion has two components horizontal motion and vertical motion. Gravity affects only the vertical motion of projectile motion.


How does gravity affect the 2 components of projectile motion?

-- Gravity causes the vertical component of projectile motion to vary according to the local acceleration of gravity. -- Gravity has no effect at all on the horizontal component of projectile motion.

How does gravity relates to newtons 3 las of motion?

Newton's three laws of motion describe how forces affect motion. They have nothing to do with gravity, except that gravity is one of many possible causes of force.

They would not affect Newton's laws in the slightest.


How does gravity affect object of different mass?

Depending on the greater or less the mass is gravity's affect on the object is not applicable as gravity is a never ending motion which does nothing but keep objects intact on planets.
