The pull of gravity on an object is dependant on the mass of that object. Gravity is the attraction between two masses, it takes the two masses to be able to determine the pull of gravity.
On earth, it's called weight...
The force of gravity between the Earth and an object
on or near its surface is
9.8 newtons (2.205 pounds)
for every kilogram of mass in the object.
What else can I help you with?
How strong is the pull of gravity on Pluto?
Pluto's force of gravity is equal to 0.58m/s2, whereas the force of gravity on Earth is 9.81m/s2. Thus, the gravity on Pluto is about 6% that of the gravity on Earth.
Why an astronaut does not get pulled into earth on the moon?
The moons gravity holds them down!! The moons gravity maybe lower than the Earth's gravity but on the moon it is strong enough to win the tug of war with Earth's gravitational pull.
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.
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.
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.
How strong will the pull of gravity on mars than on earth?
An object that weighs 100 pounds on earth would weigh about 37.9 pounds on Mars.
What is the earth's pull on an objects?
The earth's pull on objects is the force of gravity.
What is the pull of earth on you called?
The pull of Earth on you is called gravity. Gravity is the force that attracts objects with mass towards each other.
Why do you think the sun's gravity does not pull the earth into the sun?
The pull of the Sun's gravity is needed to hold the Earth in orbit.
Does the earth or Venus have more gravity?
Earth (by definition has a gravity exerting a pull of 1g. Venus is almost the same as Earth but the pull of gravity there is 0.904g. So Earth has more gravity.
Which planet gravitation pull equals that of the earth?
Of the eight planets in orbit about our sun, Venus has gravity almost as strong as ours.
Why does gravity pull things back to earth?
Gravity is a force of attraction that acts between all objects with mass. The more massive the object, the grater the attraction. Earth has quite a bit of mass and so has fairly strong gravity.
