Latitude, altitude, and the local topography and geology. Effect the gravitational pull of an area. In open areas, gravitational pull is lowest on the Nevado Huascaran mountain in Peru, and highest on the surface of the Arctic Ocean. In larger cities, the lowest gravitational pull is in Kuala Lumpur, Mexico City, and Singapore, with the highest being in Oslo and Helsinki.

When you throw a basketball up in the air where does the gravitational pull of earth affect it most?

The gravitational pull of the earth is a tiny, tiny, tiny bit stronger at the lowest point of the basketball's path, because it's closest to the center of the Earth. But you would need ultra-high-precision instruments to detect the difference.


Why is the earths orbital velocity fastest at perihelion?

the suns gravitational pull is strongest because the earth is at its closest point to the sun.


Why there will be a point between the earth and the moon at which the gravitational field strength will be zero?

At a point between the Earth and the Moon where the gravitational field strength is zero, the gravitational pull from the Earth and the Moon cancels out, resulting in a net force of zero. This point is known as the L1 Lagrange point, where the gravitational forces are balanced due to the interaction between the gravitational pull of the Earth and the Moon.


Where earth gravitationl force become zero?

Because there is no range limit on the gravitational force, the gravitational force of the earth is only zero in the exact centre of the earth, where it cancels itself out. Realistically, the force is so small outside the immediate vicinity of earth, that it may as well be zero.


What is Uranus' gravitational pull relevant to Earth's?

uranus's gravitational pull is 91% or earth's.

Would an object have a greater gravitational pull closer or farther from earth?

An object have greater gravitational pull closer from earth. As we get farther from earth, the gravitational pull becomes weaker. That is why objects sufficiently away from the earth do not fall on it.


Where does the Moon's pull equal the earth's?

The Moon's gravitational pull equals the Earth's gravitational pull at a specific point known as the L1 Lagrange point, which is located between the Earth and the Moon. At this point, the gravitational forces from both bodies balance each other out, allowing objects to maintain a stable position relative to the Earth and Moon.


What keeps earth in its orbit?

The sun's gravitational pull keeps the earth in orbit around it.


Is the gravitational pull on the moon stronger or weaker than the gravitational pull on the earth?

weaker


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.


Where on earth do you have the lowest gravitational pull?

At the top of Mount Everest. The pull of gravity decreases as your distance from the center of the Earth increases.But Mount Everest is only about 6 miles high, and the difference is too tiny to notice.
