Gravity is related to mass, the more mass you have clumped together the stronger the gravity field of that clump of mass.
Thus if the clump loses some of its mass, the gravity field of that mass will decrease, and because it is possible to lose mass in this way (stellar explosions) it follows that it is indeed possible to lose mass and gravity.

∙ 14y agoNo. Every object has a gravitational field. Even you and I. Obviously, because we are very small in relation to a planet, our gravitational field is small. The bigger the object the bigger its field of gravity. Huge planets like Saturn and Jupiter have enormous fields of gravity.
The only way for the earth to lose its gravity would be if it became microscopically small.

Why a lack of gravity might cause muscles to weaken?
Because if you don't use it, then you lose it.
What is the same between gravity and mass?
The only identical feature shared by gravity and mass is the letter 'a' . The only other possible respect in which they are at all similar is the fact that they both arise during the discussion of the law and effects of gravity.
How many centers of gravity are possible for a mass structure?
A body has 2 centre of gravity Another opinion: I think only one.
What has no gravity?
Anything with mass has gravity so anything with no mass has no gravity, for example a photon has no mass.
How are weight and mass affected by gravity?
Mass is not affected by gravity. Weight is the result of the force of gravity acting on mass.
Can a planet suddenly lose its gravity?
No that is impossible. Gravity is related to mass, so while a planet still has mass it still has gravity.
Could the earth could possibly lose its gravitational pull one day?
I think that gravity is based on mass, so the ?only? way the Earth could noticably lose gravity would be to lose a large amount of mass.
Is it possible for an object not to have a center of gravity?
No, but the centre of gravity need not be inside the object. Not unless Gravity is not a variable. But it is not possible for an object to not have a center of mass.
Why a lack of gravity might cause muscles to weaken?
Because if you don't use it, then you lose it.
If gravity increased then your weight will?
When gravity increases, weight also increases. Unlike mass, weight depends on gravity. The moon has 1/6 the gravity of the Earth, so if you want to lose weight instantly, you could theoretically stay on the moon. However, what many people want to lose is mass.

Is it possible for an object's weight to change its mass remains constant?
Yes because of gravity

A body has 2 centre of gravity Another opinion: I think only one.
How is it possible to weigh specimens under zero gravity conditions?
You can measure the mass of your specimen, or the number of matter in it. If you are talking about weight it is not possible, because weight is gravity's effect on that specimen.
What has no gravity?
Anything with mass has gravity so anything with no mass has no gravity, for example a photon has no mass.
What determines your weight on a planet?
Both it's mass and the force of gravity acting on it
Would your mass change after you run?
Mass, being the total amount of matter in an object, would change when you run, because you sweat when you run. If you ran every day, you could lose a considerable amount of weight (mass x force of gravity), so you would also lose mass.That being said, mass is not = to weight, but YES, you can lose mass by running
