What is the downward pull of earths gravity on an object?
9.8
How does object's size affect the gravity of that object?
An object's size does not directly affect its gravity. Gravity depends on an object's mass and distance from other objects. However, larger objects with more mass tend to have stronger gravitational pulls.
Can friction or acceleration due to gravity affect the weight of an object?
Friction and acceleration due to gravity do not directly affect the weight of an object. Weight is determined by the gravitational force acting on the object, which is independent of these factors. However, friction can affect the apparent weight of an object on a surface by opposing the force of gravity.
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?
When you push up on an object, you are applying an additional force that is opposing gravity, increasing the total force acting on the object, including your weight. When you push down on an object, you are applying a force that opposes gravity and counteracts part of the force of gravity acting on the object, hence reducing the effective weight felt by the object.
What factors affect the ability of gravity to do work?
The factors that affect the ability of gravity to do work include the distance the object falls, the mass of the object, and the presence of other forces that may oppose gravity, such as friction or air resistance. The work done by gravity is determined by the height through which the object falls and the force of gravity acting on the object.
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 weight affect center of gravity?
Weight directly impacts the position of an object's center of gravity. The center of gravity is the point where the weight of an object can be considered to act. As an object's weight increases, the center of gravity shifts towards the heavier end of the object.
How does the size of an object affect the force of gravity acting upon it?
The force of gravity acting on an object is directly proportional to its mass. This means that the larger the object, the greater the force of gravity acting upon it.
Two forces that can affect an object's velocity?
Gravity and friction.
Does gravity affect the mass of an object?
No, mass remains constant.
How does gravity friction and mass affect the motion of an object?
Sin no
What is the force exerted on an object by the earths pull called?
The force exerted on an object by Earth's gravity is called weight. It is the force that pulls objects towards Earth's center.
