What would be effect on mass and weight of a body if it is taken from earth surface to the surface of moon?
The mass will remain the same, but the weight will be one sixth of what it was on earth, since weight depends on the local force of gravity. The moons gravity is one sixth of the earths.
Weight of planets?
Masses of planets (in order of mass from most massive to least massive) Jupiter 1.90 x 1027kg Saturn 5.69 x 1026kg Neptune 1.02 x 1026kg Uranus 8.68 x 1025kg Earth 5.97 x 1024kg Venus 4.87 x 1024kg Mars 6.42 x 1023kg Mercury 3.30 x 1023kg Total mass of all eight planets = 2.67 x 1027kg Total mass of the sun is around 1.989 x 1030kg, so the combined mass of all of the planets is only around 0.134% of the the planets and sun together.
Is earths gravity strong or weak?
Earth technically has a weak gravity because it is one of the smallest planets compared to the others. The greater the size or mass the more gravitational pull it has.
What is Earths second name?
Third planet from the sun/ third rock from the sunEarth is also referred to as Terra.In Greek mythology Earth is one of the first gods, her name is Ge.
Why earths is also as the water planet?
The earth is also known as the water planet because about three fourth of it is covered by water bodies and one fourth of it is covered by the land.
What was earths land mass called when it was one single land mass?
Pangaea
Is earths land bigger than Earths water?
No. As a approximation there is two thirds water to one third land.
How much of earths surface is covered in land?
About one third of the land surface of the earth is desert.
From the Latin word meaning continuous mass of land what is one of the earths principal divisions of land starting with the letter c?
The answer must be "continent".
What landform takes up roughly one third of the earths land surface including the majority of northern Africa?
baroxtomix bay
What percentage of the earths surface is populated?
Approximately 30% of the Earths surface is land, the other 70% is water and ice.
What percentage of the earths surface is livable?
15% of the earths surface is livable. Of the 28% of the surface of the Earth that is land, arable land (that can be farmed) accounts for about one eighth (13%), there are permanent crops on about a twentieth (5%), permanent pastures on a quarter (26%) forest and woodlands cover one third (32%) cities 1.5% (and increasing!) and other unusable areas about a third (30%)
What predictions are there for what the earths future land masses will look like?
Different to what the world looks like now. Probably becoming one big land mass because of the way the techtonic plates are moving. The land mass may have some seas unlike pangia.
Is the Earth one half land land or not?
the earths surface is 80% water. so no.
Is it true that the greater the earths mass the greatest its gravity?
It is true that mass and gravity are proportional to one another.
Germany's land and water mass?
one third of Germany is wood land and yes its true haha i didnt think it was true eithier haha okay im good haha
Does 35 percent of the earth's land mass consist of desert?
Yes, about one third (33-35%) of the earth's land surface is covered by deserts.
