What happens to mass as you move away from earth?

Mass stays the same while weight reduces because the gravity is weaker at distance.


What happens to weight and mass as you move away from earth's gravitational field?

weight is derived from gravity's effect upon mass. so your weight would decrease, however your mass would stay the same.


What happens to air pressure as its moves away from earth?

It decreases as you move away from Earth. Close to Earth's surface, the air pressure (and density) decrease by a factor of 2, every 5 kilometers or so.


If a spaceship went into space from the earth did the spaceship move away from the earth or did the earth move away from the spaceship?

Both would probably move away from each other, because the earth moves too.


What is the difference btween mass and weight?

Mass is a measure of substance. Weight is a measure of force. Units of mass include kg (kilogram), lbs (pounds). Units of weight are N (newton). If your mass is 80 kg, your weight is 80 X 9.8 N. 9.8 is the force of gravity on the surface of the earth. The further away from the surface you move, the smaller this value will become. If your mass is 80kg on earth, it will be 80kg regardless of where you are. Your weight will however reduce as you move further away from earth.


Why can a spaceship move away from Earth?

The force the rocket uses is stronger or equal to the rocket's mass, so it can push it in the opposite direction of the Earth's gravitational pull.
