What is the downward pull of earths gravity on an object?
9.8
How does gravity affect the object's mass and weight?
Gravity affects weight, it does not affect mass.
What is the force exerted on an object by the earths pull called?
Gravity, its weight.
When you push UP on an object when object is stationary on earths surface you increase your weight when you push DOWN on an object when object is stationary on earths surface you decrease your weight?
No, your weight is just the acceleration due to the Earth's gravity,
How does gravity affect object of different mass?
Depending on the greater or less the mass is gravity's affect on the object is not applicable as gravity is a never ending motion which does nothing but keep objects intact on planets.
Do gravity affect the weight of an object?
Yes. Mass is constant for a given object. Weight is a function of mass and gravity, stronger gravity more weight.
How does gravity affect an object in motion?
it pulls the object towards the earth which kind of slows it down i guess. or is that friction? For an object travelling in the Earths atmosphere, or near to the Earth above the atmosphere, gravity provides a force pulling the object towards the centre of the Earth. Unless the object is travelling fast enough, what is called the escape velocity, this gravity force will ultimately cause the object to fall back to the surface. Friction is something else, the friction with the air in the atmosphere also slows the object, but this force acts in opposition to the direction of motion, not towards the Earths centre. To compute the trajectory of the object you need to take both forces into account.
How does gravity affect a catapult?
Gravity pulls down the object catapulted and brings it to the ground.
How does the force of the gravity affect the rate of the acceleration?
Acceleration of a falling object is directly proportional tothe force of gravity in the object's location.
How would zero gravity affect inertia?
Zero gravity does not affect inertia. The inertia of an object is an inherent property of the object and is directly proportional to the object's mass.
Why does an object accelerate when it falls towards the earths surface?
The force of gravity pulls it down to the earth.
How does gravity friction and mass affect the motion of an object?
Sin no
