Is the gravity greater?
Not only Greater, but GREATEST ! ! !Gravity per unit of mass is a small force.
Why is earths gravity stronger than an apples?
Gravity is affected by the mass of an object, The greater the mass, the greater the gravity. Apples have gravity, but because they have such a small mass the gravity is tiny, whereas Earth has a huge mass which in turn means that it has a huge and noticeable gravity.
Why moon has less g value then earth?
The moons gravity is less than that of the earth, since the earths mass is greater than the moons mass. Gravity is related to mass and distance from that mass. The greater the mass, the greater the gravitational field it has.
How would your weight change on the surface of an earth sized planet whose mass was greater the earths Why.?
Your weight is directly proportional to the mass and gravity of the planet, if the planet has a greater gravity and mass, you will weigh more.
Moon gravity vs earths gravity?
Moon gravity is less because the atmosphere and mass and the earths gravity is greater than the moon if you weight yourself in the earth and then you weighted yourself in the moon you would weight less in the moon you could actually float in the moon because of its atmosphere and mass
Which object does gravity exert a greater force on?
The one with the greatest mass that is closest to the surface of the Earth.
How much mass does an object have to have to create gravity?
Gravity exists wherever there is a body, whatever the mass. The greater the mass, the greater the gravity.
How does mass and gravity distance effect gravity?
The larger the mass of an object, the greater the force it will exert on other objects. But as the distance from that object becomes greater, the gravitational pull becomes smaller. For example, the sun has a larger mass than the earth, so gravity on the suns surface would be much greater than on earths surface. Also, as you get further and further away from the earth, the less you are influenced by its gravity.
Does gravity decrease or increase if earths mass doubled?
More mass --> more gravity.
The greater the mass the greater what?
gravity
Is the mass of Neptune greater or less than earths mass?
greater
How would a loss of mass affect a planet's gravity?
The greater the mass, the greater the force of gravity.
