The strength of the gravitational forces between two masses decreases as the square of the distance between their centers. The average Earth radius is 6,371 km. 150,000 km is 23.54 times the Earth's radius. So the acceleration of gravity, and hence the weight of an object, is (23.54)^-2 = 0.0018 of its value on the Earth's surface.
What else can I help you with?
How strong is the gravity on Mars compared to earths?
it is 38% of earths gravity. Fun fact- Jupiter is the biggest planet in the solar system YAY
How does the suns gravity compares to earths gravity?
The sun gravity is stronger
Does the pull of gravity work on the moon?
yes. everything that has a mass has gravity, including urself. but on the moon the gravity is only 17% as strong as earths gravity
what effects how strong earths gravity is?
The Earth's mass, and how far you are from the center of the Earth.
How strong is the gravity compared with earths gravity?
The question neglects to mention what other place it wants compared to Earth, so no comparison is possible.
What is stronger than earths gravity?
The gravity of a black hole is stronger than Earth's gravity. Black holes have such a strong gravitational pull that not even light can escape from them.
Does Mercury have a strong or weak gravity?
If you mean the acceleration due to gravity on the surface, that's about 3.7 meters per second squared; for comparison, gravity on Earth is 9.8 meters per second squared.
After a shuttle is launched into orbit what happens to gravity?
There is no gravity in space but the shuttle stays in orbit because of the Earths gravity and inertia. The inertia keeps it going in a circular motion. In space the Earth's gravity is strong enough to hold something in orbit but not strong enough to pull it to Earth's surface.
Why a falling falling object subjected to earth's gravity does not continue to accelerate forever?
A: because earths gravity cannot be harnessed forever unless the earth is moving with you. B: because earths gravity is not strong enough to pull you along unless you are in space as friction from air resistance will stop you.
How does the earth keep the moon at fix distance away?
Earths gravity isn't strong enough to pull it into the Earth, however it is strong enough to keep it from drifting away.
How strong is mars gravity compared to earths?
The acceleration of gravity on the surface of Mars is 3.722 m/s2 .That's about 38 percent of its value on Earth.
How much does something weigh 1000 meters above earths surface?
"at an altitude of 400 kilometres (250 miles), equivalent to a typical orbit of the Space Shuttle, gravity is still nearly 90% as strong as at the Earth's surface" -- Wikipedia: Earth's gravity # Altitude
