As you get farther from the Earth, you attract the Earth with less gravitational

force, and the Earth attracts you with less gravitational force. The two forces

remain equal as they both decrease.

Change of gravity pull


What are the two things that change the pull of gravity between two objects?

The two things that change the pull of gravity between two objects are their masses and the distance between them. The greater the mass of the objects, the stronger the gravitational pull, while the farther apart they are, the weaker the gravitational pull.


Why is there gravity on earth but almost none in space?

On Earth, gravity comes from the planet. The farther you go into space and away from Earth, the less gravity there is. Until you get near an large object, like a star, or a planet, or a moon, or a black hole. Then you will feel the pull of gravity again.


What happens to the force of gravity on a person as he gets farther away from Earth?

As a person moves farther away from Earth, the force of gravity acting on them decreases. This is because gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the center of the Earth. Therefore, as the distance increases, the gravitational pull weakens, resulting in a lower weight for the person the farther they are from the planet.

Does the pull of earth's gravity get weaker the farther away you are from Earth?

Yes. The force of attraction between two objects is inversely proportional to the square of separation between the objects. That's why if we move away from the Earth (or any stellar object), the pull of gravity gets weaker. You could also say that the farther you are from another mass, the smaller your *mutual* attraction by gravity, since all objects attract all other objects. It is only in asteroids, moons, planets, and stars that we begin to see it as an appreciable force.


How does the moon created a bulge?

The moon has it's own gravitational pull. The earth's gravity keeps the moon in orbit, while the moon's gravity tugs on the earth. This pull from the moon creates a bulge on the earth, especially on the oceans. This pull is what causes the tides to change.


Would an object have a greater gravitational pull closer or farther from earth?

An object have greater gravitational pull closer from earth. As we get farther from earth, the gravitational pull becomes weaker. That is why objects sufficiently away from the earth do not fall on it.


How do tides change monthly on earth?

The gravity of the moon and sun combine to pull Earth's waters in the same direction.


How does gravity change as it travels near the earth?

the grvitational pull of the earth becomes stronger as you cet closer to the core.


Does your weight change depending on the pull of gravity?

Yes, weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object. Therefore, weight will change depending on the strength of the gravitational pull, which can vary depending on location (e.g., Earth's gravity vs. the moon's gravity).


What is the earth's pull on an objects?

The earth's pull on objects is the force of gravity.
