How much more is Earths surface of gravity than the Moon's?
Earths surface of gravity is 4.6m/s2 more than moons.
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 a true statement about the moon?
The Moon orbits the Earth. The Moons gravity causes Earths tides to ebb and flow.
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 the moons gravity 6 times stronger than the earth gravity?
No. It is about 5 times weaker.
Is the Moon's gravitional pull stronger or weaker than the earths?
The moons gravitational attraction is weaker as the moon is smaller
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.
How much stronger is the earths gravity than the moons gravity?
The moon's gravity is about 1/6th of Earth's.
How much more is Earths surface of gravity than the Moon's?
Earths surface of gravity is 4.6m/s2 more than moons.
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 earths relative gravity?
Generally gravity of other planets, moons, ext is compared relatively to Earth's (with Earth's being 1).
