If the mass of the star were doubled what effect would this have on the gravitational attraction between the star and its planet?
Gravity would be increased by one.
What is the gravity on the planet Io?
Io is a moon of Jupiter, not a planet. Surface gravity is about 18% of the gravity on Earth.
Why does a 150pound man weigh 380 on Jupiter?
Because the gravity would be heavier on Jupiter, even though the planet is mostly a gas giant with a small iron core. The iron core is still larger than Earth I believe. The answer is, because of the increased gravity due to the increased size of the planet. Care to venture a guess as to how much you'd weigh on the sun?
How does gravity effect earth's rotation?
No. Earth's magnetic field is a manifestation of the electromagnetic force, which is caused by the presence of spinning nickel and iron in the core of the planet. Gravity is a separate force (one of the four fundamental forces...the other two are the weak force, involved in nuclear decay, and the strong force, involved in holding together the nucleus of an atom) which is caused by the concentration (increased density) of mass/energy in a given region of space-time. Modern physics also states that gravitational force is mediated by particles known as gravitons.
What happens to the gravity on large and small planet?
Gravity depends largely on mass, the bigger the planet the greater the gravity should be
If the mass of the star were doubled what effect would this have on the gravitational attraction between the star and its planet?
Gravity would be increased by one.
What has Jupiter's gravity may have kept asteroids from forming?
A planet
Which planet atmosphere is increased by the greenhouse effect?
Research has shown that the planet Venus has its atmosphere temperature increased by the greenhouse effect
How does the planet's gravity effect it?
I makes the planet spheical in shape.
What is the effect of gravity on the planets?
simple, the larger the planet, the greater the force of gravity.
One theory about asteroids says that Jupiter's strong what prevented the asteroids from forming a planet?
gravity
Does the international dateline have gravity?
The international dateline has normal gravity; our time zone conventions have no effect on the gravity of the planet Earth.
Why scientists theorize that the asteroid belt did not form a planet?
scientists theorize that it was jupiters gravity that kept it from forming
The acceleration of gravity on the surface of a planet will effect a person's or object's what?
weight
Is there really evidence that there was a planet on the asteroid belt?
There certainly is enough material in the asteroid belt to form another planet, however the immense gravity of Jupiter prevented a planet from forming.
What are the two main causes for the existence of atmospheres on the terrestrial planets?
One main reason is the gravity a dense object like a terrestial planet has. As gravity depends on the density of a object and a rocky planet has much density...our earth is the densest object in the solar system but Jupiter's gravity is more as gravity depends upon size too. The gravity holds the gases forming the atmosphere. Another reason is the core which has a magnetic effect and forms a magnetic layer which has some effect on the atmospheric gases and saves it from going away to the space by attracting the gases towards the pole where the gravity is the highest.
Does the size of a planet effect your throwing ability?
YES! the size of the planet does effect your throwing ability! If you get each planets' gravity number then you will notice that the smaller the planet the less gravity force/attraction it will have. If you go to Jupiter and throw a football the gravity will pull down on the football faster and make your throw much shorter than it would on Earth because Jupiter has a bigger gravity number then Earth.
