Does the earth's atmosphere revolve with it?
The atmosphere is effected by the rotation of the earth, its magnetic field, and solar winds primarily.
How do gravity the atmosphere of the moon compare to the moon?
The Moon has almost no atmosphere, so that is unable to influence lunar gravity - which is about one sixth of Earth's gravity.
Why is there no gravity outside your atmosphere?
There certainly is gravity outside the atmosphere. For example, it is gravity that keeps the Moon in orbit around the Earth, and the Earth in orbit around the Sun.
What holds the atmosphere to the earth?
The earths gravity. The more mass a body has, the more gravity, The Earth has enough mass to hold an atmosphere. The Moon, on the other hand, is not massive enough, and so does not have a high enough gravity, which prevents it from holding an atmosphere.
Where does the center of gravity of the atmosphere of the earth lies?
Since the atmosphere is more or less symmetric, its center of mass (center of gravity) gravity must be quite close to Earth's center.
Gravity and how mass effects it?
gravity and how mass is effected by it
What is one thing that affects the gravity?
Gravity is affected and effected by mass.
Is obelisk the tormentor effected by gravity bind?
Yes because gravity bind doesn't target
Why is space not like earth?
Earth: Space: - is a planet - No gravity - supports life - Vaccum - gravity - No gravity or atmosphere - atmosphere
What holds our atmosphere in place?
The Earth's gravity.
Does the earth's atmosphere revolve with it?
The atmosphere is effected by the rotation of the earth, its magnetic field, and solar winds primarily.
What is a measure of an amount of matter that is effected by gravity?
That seems to refer to the MASS.
How do gravity the atmosphere of the moon compare to the moon?
The Moon has almost no atmosphere, so that is unable to influence lunar gravity - which is about one sixth of Earth's gravity.
What is the the earths moons atmosphere?
There is no atmosphere on the moon. There is insufficient gravity to keep an atmosphere there.
What is the role of gravity in maintaining an atmoshere?
It is essential: no gravity - no atmosphere.
Why is there no gravity outside your atmosphere?
There certainly is gravity outside the atmosphere. For example, it is gravity that keeps the Moon in orbit around the Earth, and the Earth in orbit around the Sun.
What characteristics determine whether a planet or moon can maintain an atmosphere?
gravity and temperature; It needs gravity so it can hold its atmosphere.
