What is dependent on gravitational pull?

Any two objects with mass will have a gravitational force. The orbit of planets around stars depends on the gravitational pull of the star. The Earth exerts a gravitational pull on its moon but the moon also exerts a pull on the Earth.


Who has more gravity the moon are the earth?

The earth exerts a stronger gravitational force.


Is high tide and low tide cause due to gravitation?

Yes, tides are caused by the gravitational attraction that the moon exerts on the Earth and its bodies of water.


How would the gravitational force that the Moon exerts on the Earth compare with the force it exerts today if the moon were moved so that it is half as far from the earth as it is today?

increases 4 times the initial force


Earth exerts a stronger gravitational force than the moon because Earth has more?

gravitaional pull


Why a person would weight more on earth than the moon?

The Earth has a higher mass, which means it exerts a larger gravitational force.


Why does center of rotation for the earth-moon system is within the earth rather than between the earth and moon?

Because the earth exerts far more gravitational pull (due to it's much higher mass) then the moon, however the moon's gravitational exertion is measurable on the earths surface in the form of tides in the ocean.


What does The force of gravity that Earth exerts on objects in your solar system cause?

the moon to orbit the earth


How strong is the earths moons gravatational pull?

The moon exerts a gravitational force approximately one sixth of the gravity of earth.


Does the moon give us gravity?

The moon exerts a gravitational influence on Earth. It causes the tides in the oceans, and, when directly overhead, it reduces your weight by a tiny amount.


Is it true that moon pulls on the earth with one-sixth the force that the earth exerts on the moon?

No. Gravitational force is present between every two mass bodies, and the force on each body is the same.


What exerts a strong pull on water in the ocean?

The Moon's gravitational pull on our planet causes the ebb and flow, (rise and fall), of our earth's oceans.
