Mass helps the gravitational force by pulling the object down
What else can I help you with?
What affects the gravitational force?
Mass and distance of separation.
How does mass affects the force?
Mass and Force have no relationship except the gravitational force that is dependent on the mass of the body. Mass affects only the inertial force. Inertial force is the force required to change a state of rest or motion of a body. Greater the mass greater the inertial force required.
How can Jupiter have gravity if it is gaseous?
Grvity affects everything with mass. Gas has mass. The Earth's atmosphere, and every part of the sun, are gaseous. They exert gravitational force, and they have gravitational force exerted on them.
How does gravitational force change mass?
Gravitational force does not change the mass (kilograms)of an object. It merely changes the force at which one object is attracted to the other. This means it's weight (newtons) is raised. The formula for weight is Mass x Force of Gravity, which is why thing seem to weigh less on the moon, their mass does not change, only their apparent weight.
How does mass affect the magnitude of gravitational force?
The magnitude of gravitational force between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses. This means that as the mass of one or both objects increases, the magnitude of the gravitational force between them also increases. In simpler terms, the more massive an object is, the stronger its gravitational pull.
Which factor has a greater overall effect of the gravitational force is it mass or distance?
The factor that has a greater overall effect on gravitational force is distance. Gravitational force decreases as the distance between two objects increases, while mass affects the magnitude of the force but not as significantly as distance.
Why does gravitational field affect the period of a pendulum?
The gravitational field affects the period of a pendulum because it influences the weight of the pendulum mass, which in turn affects the force acting on the pendulum. A stronger gravitational field will increase the force on the pendulum, resulting in a shorter period, while a weaker gravitational field will decrease the force and lead to a longer period.
How does gravitational force affect your mass?
Gravitational force does not change your mass. Mass is the same when you are floating in the weightlessness of space, but your mass when put into a gravitational field creates your weight. On Earth, Earth's gravity (gravitational force) pulls on your mass, creating your weight. The mass of an object determines its gravitational pull. A object with a lot of mass like the Earth has a lot of gravitational force/pull -- the force we call gravity. So, your body has a gravitational force, it's just so small, because your mass is small, it isn't noticeable.
What do two factors affects the gravitational force between two objects?
MASS of both objects, and the DISTANCE between them.
How is gravitational force and mass related?
Gravitational force F = mass x g where g is the gravitational acceleration.
Explain how the force due to gravity depends on mass and distance?
Gravitational force is a consequence of an object having mass being attracted to all other sources of mass in the universe.Distance affects strength of attraction.
How does the planets mass affect the strength of gravitational force?
The greater the mass, the greater the gravitational force.
