Is mercury's gravity heavier or lighter than earth's gravity?
Much lighter. If you weighed 180 pounds on earth you would weigh 68.4 pounds on Mercury.
How does the weight of an apple change when you move it from the earth to the moon?
Anything, including an apple, weighs heavier on earth due to earth's gravity. The gravity on the moon is much less, so objects are lighter.
Is saturns gravity strong or week with earth?
Saturn's surface gravity is approx 6.5% greater than the earth's.
On Pluto do humans become heavier?
No. Because of the weaker gravity people would actually be much lighter on Pluto than on Earth.
Why is the Earth's core made out of a different compound then the Earth's crust?
It is because heavier compounds settled at the core due to gravity while lighter ones floated above when the whole mass of earth was is molten state.
Does the acceleration due to gravity depend on the mass of the cart?
No. On Earth the force of gravity or acceleration is always about 9.8m/sec^2 Earth's gravity does not change just because the cart gets heavier lighter.
How can gravity make items heavier or lighter?
Gravity itself doesn't change the weight of an object; rather, it affects how we perceive that weight based on the gravitational force acting on it. On Earth, gravity pulls objects toward its center, giving them weight proportional to their mass. However, in environments with weaker gravity, like the Moon, the same objects feel lighter because the gravitational pull is less intense. Therefore, while gravity influences the sensation of weight, it doesn't inherently make items heavier or lighter; it simply varies based on the strength of the gravitational field.
Is Gravity on the sun is much lighter than it is on Earth?
Our Sun's gravity is much higher than the Earth's.
What was Aristotle's theory about gravity?
Aristotle did not have a specific theory of gravity as we understand it today. He believed in the natural motion of objects toward their natural place in the universe (e.g., heavier objects falling towards Earth, and lighter objects rising). His view was different from the modern understanding of gravity as a force of attraction between objects with mass.
Why is a person heavier or lighter on venus than on earth?
A person would weigh 90.4% of whatever they weigh on Earth.
What happens when you take a rock from earth to the moon?
The earth becomes a litle lighter and the moon becomes a little heavier.
Would a earthling feel heavier or lighter on the surface of mars?
As Mars is smaller than earth, and therefore has a lighter gravity, a person would feel lighter on Mars. In fact on Mars you would weigh half as much
