What does the apple have to do with gravity and the moon?
DeborahRobinson
I believe that Sir Issac Newton saw an apple fall from a tree and this got him thinking about gravity and the relationships of items of different mass.

How does the weight of an apple change when you move it from the earth to the moon?
Anything, including an apple, weighs heavier on earth due to earth's gravity. The gravity on the moon is much less, so objects are lighter.
How much does an apple weigh on the moon?
If an apple weighs six ounces on the earth, it will weigh just one ounce on the moon. The moon has one sixth of the gravity of earth.
Why there is no gravity in moon?
There is gravity on the moon.
How does the flag stay on the moon if there is no gravity?
There is gravity on the moon. Gravity comes from mass, which the moon has.
How moon produce tides if there is no gravity on moon?
The moon does have gravity. Surface gravity on the moon is about 1/6 what it is on Earth.

Does an apple fall faster on the moon or earth?
On the earth because the earth has stronger gravity than the moon
Can gravity apple?
No. But apple can gravity.
Did sir lsaac newton discovered gravity by watching an apple fall?
No one discovered gravity. It's like saying someone discovered the moon, or the stars.And no, most likely the story about the apple is just an anecdote.
Why there is no gravity in moon?
There is gravity on the moon.
How does the flag stay on the moon if there is no gravity?
There is gravity on the moon. Gravity comes from mass, which the moon has.
How moon produce tides if there is no gravity on moon?
The moon does have gravity. Surface gravity on the moon is about 1/6 what it is on Earth.
What was the colour of the apple which fell on sir isaac newton?
The story of the apple has been greatly exaggerated over the years. Newton used an apple as an example when explaining that Earth's gravity pulls the apple down and that same gravity acts on the moon to keep it in orbit around the earth. I don't believe there was an apple that actually fell on Newton.
Why does not the moon have gravity?
The moon does have gravity but it is much weaker it hase 1/6 of the earths gravity. wihout it how do you expect the men on the moon to stay on the moon?
Why doesn't the moon have any gravity?
The moon does have gravity. Surface gravity on the moon is about 1/6 what it is on Earth.
Is there gravitiy in the moon?
Yes, there Is gravity on the moon. It is not as strong as the Earth's gravity (it is about 1/6 of the Earth's gravity), but, Yes, the moon does have gravity.
