Is a mass or weight determined by gravity?

[ Mass ] is a property of the object, and doesn't depend on the presence or strength of gravity.[ Weight ] is the result of gravity, and changes depending on the local strength of gravity.


What planet attracts other objects through gravity?

All planets have gravity, and will attract other objects. The strength of the attraction is determined by the mass of the planet and the distance to the object.


Why does mars have the weakest gravity?

It doesn't. As an example, the acceleration of gravity on the surface of Earth's moon is less than 1/2 of what it is on the surface of Mars. The strength of gravity on any astronomical body is determined by both its mass and radius. Those are the answers to any "why" gravity question.


Gravity is determined by what?

Mass and motion

Mass and motion


Is gravity determined by mass or size or both?

Since gravity is basically a force then, it is determined by both mass and size. Also weight.


How does sun get gravity power?

Every speck of mass in the universe has 'gravity power'. The strength of the sun's gravity and the strength of the gravity of the lint in your shirt pocket can be calculated with exactly the same simple formula.


What is the term for motion determined by gravity?

The term for motion determined by gravity is mcV. This term is the vector energy determined by gravity. The motion energy involves the vector velocity V. The scalar value of the vector is SQRT(GM/r), determined by gravity. The total energy determined by gravity is quaternion energy, consisting of the real Potential Energy (-mu/r) and the vector energy (mcV): E= -GmM/r + mcV = -mu/r + mcV


Does the mass of an object depends on the strength of gravity?

No mass is not affected by gravity, weight is.


How does gravity affect its strength?

It doesn't. Mass and distance affects the force of gravity.
