What else can I help you with?
Why are small moons like Deimos potato shaped while larger moons are spherical?
Large moons are rounded by their own gravity, which tends to pull down any large projections. Low-mass moons have weaker gravity and so are unable to do this.
How does the Moon's movement effect the tides?
The moons gravity 'pulls' the earths water creating a 'tide.'
What is the gravity of Callisto?
Callisto, one of Jupiter's moons, has a surface gravity of about 0.126 times that of Earth, or 1.235 m/s². This means that objects on Callisto weigh less than they would on Earth due to the weaker gravitational force.
How does gravity affect the movement of the moons?
Earths gravity keeps the moon from flying off in the same way the sun keeps earth in balance.
Is there gravity on rhea?
Yes, Rhea, one of Saturn's moons, has its own gravity. This gravity is weaker than Earth's gravity due to Rhea being smaller and less massive.
Is the Moon's gravitional pull stronger or weaker than the earths?
The moons gravitational attraction is weaker as the moon is smaller
Is the moons gravity 6 times stronger than the earth gravity?
No. It is about 5 times weaker.
How much stronger is the earths gravity than the moons gravity?
The moon's gravity is about 1/6th of Earth's.
Why is there the moons gravity is only16 of the earths?
The earth has a colossal size more mass
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 exact distance when the earths gravity becomes 0 or moons gravity takes over?
We are not sure. try looking it up on a different website
What is the gravity on the moon lo?
About 0.183g, where one g is the earths gravity, so about one fifth of the earths gravity. It is similar to our own moons surface gravity.
What is the gravity of Callisto?
Callisto, one of Jupiter's moons, has a surface gravity of about 0.126 times that of Earth, or 1.235 m/s². This means that objects on Callisto weigh less than they would on Earth due to the weaker gravitational force.
