Why is there the moons gravity is only16 of the earths?

The earth has a colossal size more mass


When you are you closer to the Moon's surface or the earths core?

None, only the earths core is more closer, the moons surface is 37.000 Vertices from earth


Do all of the moons not have gravity?

Everything has gravity, the bigger it is the more it has. Moons DO have gravity, but it might be less than Earth's.


How does gravity affect the earths surface?

It makes things weigh more or less, depending on the surface gravity.


Where do you experience more gravity on earths surface or earths center?

on the surfaceNote:Since the earth's composition is not homogeneous, the gravitational acceleration onthe surface is probably less than what it is some small distance below the surface,but it's certainly greater than at the center.


How come moons orbit Jupiter even though sun have greater gravitational pull?

If you compare surface gravity, yes the sun's gravity is stronger than that of Jupiter. But gravity decreases in strength as you get farther from the object. Jupiter's moons are close enough to Jupiter and far enough from the sun that Jupiter's gravity has more influence.


What is the gravity of the moon Io relative to earth's gravity?

The surface gravity on Io is very low compared to Earth, due to its low mass, around 0.183g or 18.3% of the Earths pull at the surface. this is just a little more than the surface gravity on our own moon, which is about 16.5% of earths pull.


Does gravity decrease or increase if earths mass doubled?

More mass --> more gravity.


Why does the acceleration of gravity vary from one point to another on the earths surface?

Different air pressure, so there is more/less air resistance.


What captures most of the planets moons?

the gravitational pull of the gravity of the planet so in other words bigger planets more gravity, smaller planet less gravity. usually bigger planets have more moons


Where is the force of gravity stronger below or above the Earths surface?

I'd assume Yes. It makes sence that the further you get from the earth the lesser it's pull of gravity, although it would be a miniscule difference. However, the denser gasses that collect within a mile from earth may cancel out this minimal difference or even make it greater.


How would your weight change on the surface of an earth sized planet whose mass was greater the earths Why.?

Your weight is directly proportional to the mass and gravity of the planet, if the planet has a greater gravity and mass, you will weigh more.
