The mass of the earth is said to generate a gravity field. There is a lot of debate on this issue. But it has been scientifically proven that in areas of higher gravity the flow of time slows down in relation to an observer in a lighter gravity field.

A black hole is an extreme example (time stops at the event horizon). To keep in mind that on mars which is 1/3 our size while a 1,000,000 years pass on earth only ~999,999.9 years may pass on Mars.

In an experiment where two synchronized atomic clocks were used. One was placed on a high flying plane and the other was kept on the ground. When compared the one in flight was running ~ 3 billionth of a second faster.
in addition the speed that our planet is rotating, orbiting the sun and traveling through the galaxy all come together to add time-dilation effects to the equation. The number is very small but it adds up over time.

What is the relationship between massweight and gravity?

Weight is the pull of a gravity field on a massGravity is the result of a distortion in space-time produced by a mass.


Explain why the relationship between orbital speed and distance is the same as that between gravity and distance?

gravity is that keeping the orbital speed from falling or breaking loose. and the distance away = time


Why do i every time pick spot of from your head or on your body?

because the gravity of the earth between the sun so the spot from your head or on you body is spoted by the gravity between the sun....


How much time less then gravity of the moon as compare to the earth?

moon's gravity is (1/6)th of the earth's gravity


Over time the moon's gravity will drastically alter earth's?

Over time the moon's gravity will drastically alter the Earth's rate of rotation.


What are some interesting facts about gravity?

-- There is a force of gravity between every two objects in the universe. No two objects can ever be so small or so far apart that the force of gravity between them is zero. There is a force of gravity between a hair on your head and a grain of sand on an asteroid in orbit around a star in the farthest galaxy. -- The force of gravity between two objects depends on the 'product' of their masses (one mass multiplied by the other mass), not on either one alone. -- The force of gravity always works both ways at the same time. You pull the earth with the same amount of force that the earth pulls you. Your weight on the earth is the same as the earth's weight on you.


Does the force of gravity change at various times of the day at the same place?

No. Force of gravity is not time dependent. It is proportional to the product of masses of the earth and the matter in question and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the center of the earth and the center of the matter.


What whould happen if the time of rotation for Earth was different?

The days would be longer, and the gravity would be higher if the rotation time of earth was longer. The days would be shorter, and there would be less gravity on Earth if the rotation time decreased.


Does the international dateline have gravity?

The international dateline has normal gravity; our time zone conventions have no effect on the gravity of the planet Earth.


How do you defeat black widow in time?

What is the relationship between time and universal gravitation?

Gravity is the force of attraction between massive particles due to their mass. Weight is determined by the mass of an object and its location in a gravitational field. While a great deal is known about the properties of gravity, the ultimate cause of the gravitational force remains an open question. General relativity, which postulates a relationship between mass and energy curve, space and time, is the most successful theory of gravitation to date.


What makes earth have gravity?

The fact that it has mass which distorts the fabric of space-time. This in turn creates gravity.
