Gravitational force is inversally proportional to square of separation between the objects. Now, the separation is increased by 5 times, therefore the force between the objects is dropped by the factor of 1/25.
Therefore, force beteen earth and object is 200/25 = 8 N.
Nothing directly. The weight of an object depends on the strength of the gravitational field which it is in. Mass is most closely related to it within earths gravitational field.
For absolute zero gravitational attraction - Infinity. The gravitational attraction due to the Earth is also zero at the centre of the Earth.
That is called gravitational potential energy.
WEIGHT of the object
the "weight" of either one
Commonly referred to as the object's "weight".Note: The object also exerts the same identical gravitational force on the earth.Earth
The Earth and the object exert a gravitational force on each other, but only the Earth's is big enough to measure. So, the formula for gravitational force include the distance from one body's surface to its center and the same for the other body. The length of the radius is directly proportional to the body's gravitational force.
Toward the center of mass of the object
Yes. Weight is the gravitational force X the mass of an object. The further away from the center of the earth, the less the gravitational force. So you would weigh more at sea level than you would on top of Mt. Everest.
Nothing directly. The weight of an object depends on the strength of the gravitational field which it is in. Mass is most closely related to it within earths gravitational field.
the moons gravitational pull
No. Mass is the quantity of actual stuff of which an object is composed.The force of gravitational attraction between the Earth and the object'smass is called the object's "weight" on Earth.
Every speck of mass throughout any solid body "has gravity", and attracts every other speck of mass. But when you're outside of the solid body, the gravitational effect of all those specks of mass is exactly as if all of its mass were located at its "center of mass" or "center of gravity". For a homogeneous spherical object, that point is the center of the sphere.
The gravitational pull acting on an object towards the earth's center.
Gravitational forces are attractive only. They act on a line from the center of mass of one object, to the center of mass of another object, and work to bring the two objects closer together.
Weight is actually force in a fixed setting. In the context of a relatively large and uniform gravitational field (such as being on the surface of the planet), weight is the force along the line between the center of the gravitational field and the center of the object. That is, the weight of an object in such a gravitational field is the strength of that field multiplied by the mass of the object.
For absolute zero gravitational attraction - Infinity. The gravitational attraction due to the Earth is also zero at the centre of the Earth.
