How fast do objects accelerate when falling to the ground?
When falling to the ground (or even just in the air), the acceleration of an object depends on the gravitational pull of the object it is falling towards. Here on earth, all things fall relative to the earth which causes an acceleration of 9.81 m/s^2
Is gravitational potential energy is the same gravitational force?
No. Gravitational force is the pull an object experience from gravity. Gravitational energy is the energy an object has from its position in a gravitational field. An object moving up in a gravitational field gains gravitational energy.
Why doesn't an object keep moving?
Gravitational pull and friction.
What forces determine weight?
The gravitational pull on the density of an object!
What do we call the pull of gravity in an object?
It's called the object's weight.
What force is causes an object to orbit another object in space?
Gravitational pull
What determine the gravitational pull of a object?
An object's gravitational pull is determined by the object's mass.
Force that causes an object o move in the same direction as the force is?
gravitational pull/force
What is gravitational pull on an object?
The weight on an object is the gravitaional pull.
What object in your solar system causes the tides of the sea?
The moons gravitational pull causes the tides of the sea.This phenomena happens twice a day.
How does the density of an object effect its gravitational pull on other objects example when a star's density increases its gravitational pull increases on other objects?
Mass, not density, and the closeness of objects, affects an object's gravitational pull. Density is not dependent on an object's size, but mass is. The more massive an object, and/or the closer an object is to another, the greater its gravitational pull.
How would you give an object gravitational pull?
All obects have a gravitational pull. The larger it is, the stronger the pull.
What is the term for the pull of gravity on an object?
gravitational pull
What causes a bulge to be created on the opposite side of the moon?
The gravitational pull of the earth causes a bulge on the opposite side of the moon. The gravitational pull of the earth is greater than the gravitational pull of the sun.
Would an object have a greater gravitational pull closer or farther from earth?
An object have greater gravitational pull closer from earth. As we get farther from earth, the gravitational pull becomes weaker. That is why objects sufficiently away from the earth do not fall on it.
What is the gravitational pull on an object?
That is also known as the object's WEIGHT.
How fast do objects accelerate when falling to the ground?
When falling to the ground (or even just in the air), the acceleration of an object depends on the gravitational pull of the object it is falling towards. Here on earth, all things fall relative to the earth which causes an acceleration of 9.81 m/s^2
