As you get far away from Earth the amount of air decreases because the plants provide air and as we go further away from the earth the plants are not there so that's why the air becomes thin and thin and then slowly and gradually there is no air.

This is because as you travel through the surface of the earth the mass of the planet behind you would be pulling against the mass of the planet in front of you and this would have a cancelling affect.

Wiki User
∙ 13y agoThe force acting on you decreases by the inverse of the square of the distance.
That means if you go double the distance, the force is only a quarter.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoIn that case, by the Universal Law of Gravitation, the force of gravity would decrease, since the distance between the attracting objects increases.

What is the force of gravity on the rocket at the planet's surface?
The force of gravity at the earth surface remains at 1 g, or 9.81 m/s2. This force reduces as the rocket travels further away from the surface.
What happens when the volcano moves away from the hot spot?
The youngest Hawaiian island is the one directly over the hotspot and their age increases as they move further away.
How high before gravity ends?
A gravitational force is only thought to be 0 at a distance of infinity away from the mass. Basically gravity doesn't end but just becomes weaker the further you go away from the mass exterting the gravitational force.
Why is there less air pressure on top of a mountain than near an ocean?
Because - the further away from the Earth's surface you go - the less gravity there is to hold the air molecules in place.
Is gravity what makes asteroids and comets move?
the gravity stops them from floating away
What happens to gravity as you move further south in the Southern hemisphere?
Nothing happens to gravity. It remains the same as it is everywhere else on earth.
Is Venus's gravity stronger than earth's gravity?
yes it is further away from the gravity pull so yes
What happens to the pull of gravity the farther away you are from earths surface?
The Gravity becomes less
How do you loose the gravitational force from body to earth?
Develop an anti-gravity device. The further away you are the less gravity effects you.
What happens if earth fell out of its orbit?
This is impossible but, the earth would keep spinning for a while but would be swirling further and further away from its neighbouring planets and we would freeze immediately. The moon would probably slow to but as the earths gravity weakens, the moon would drift away from us.
What happens to the pull of the gravity on the rocket as it get further from earth?
As any two masses move further apart, the gravitational forcesbetween them get weaker.
Does a planet have less gravity if it is further away from the sun?
No. The surface gravity of a planet is a product of its size and mass. It has nothing to do with distance from the sun. However, a planet farther away from the sun will experience a weaker pull from the sun's gravity.
Why does air pressure drop as you move away from the earths surface?
In simple terms... gravity ! Gravity is holding the air close to the surface of the Earth. The further away you are from the surface - the lower the gravity - and thus the lower the air pressure.
What happens when Pluto and Eris move further away from the Sun?
They get colder
What happens to the strength of this gravitational field as an objects moves further away from Earth?
The further away from the Earth's surface you travel - the weaker the gravitational pull is.
If mass stays the same and distance increases then the force of gravity does what?
Gravity gets weaker the further away you get. Specifically it varies with 1 divided by the distance squared.
When you go up on the elevetor does the gravity fall?
As you move further away from Earth, the strength of gravity becomes less.
