One of the largest asteroids, Ceres was discovered in 1801.
With its estimated average radius of about 461 km, and its estimated mass
of 9.43 x 1020 kg (0.00015 of Earth's mass, 0.0128 of the Moon's mass), the
acceleration of gravity on its surface is estimated at 0.27 m/s2, or 2.8% of
its value on the Earth's surface.
If you weigh 150 pounds on Earth, you'll weigh about 4pounds 2.1ounces on Ceres.
Yes. Surface gravity on Ceres is about 3% that of Earth.
Ceres is classified as a dwarf planet. Ceres is a large asteroid, part of the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. If it was a planet, it would be classified as an inner.
On the asteroid Ceres, both the hammer and feather would hit the ground at the same time due to the very low gravitational pull compared to Earth. This phenomenon is in line with Galileo's principle that objects of different mass will fall at the same rate in a vacuum.
Ceres is not called a moon because it orbits the sun directly, rather than another planet. Moons typically orbit around a planet, while dwarf planets like Ceres have their own independent orbits around the sun.
Ceres was counted as a planet from its discovery in 1801 until the 1850s when it was reclassified as an asteroid. In 2006 it was classified as a dwarf planet, which is not considered a planet.
The acceleration of gravity on the surface of the dwarf planet Ceres is listed as 0.27 m/s2. That's 2.75% of its value on Earth. If you weigh 200 pounds on Earth, then you would weigh 51/2 pounds on Ceres, not counting all the stuff you'd need to wear just to stay alive there.
The gravity of Ceres is 0.27 m/s² or 0.028 g
Ceres is not a gaseous planet. Ceres is not a planet, it is a dwarf planet. Ceres has a rocky surface.
Yes. Surface gravity on Ceres is about 3% that of Earth.
Oh, dude, of course Ceres has gravity! It's a dwarf planet in our solar system, not some floating balloon at a birthday party. It's got enough gravity to hold itself together and even has a little bit of an atmosphere. So yeah, Ceres is definitely bringing the gravity to the party.
The gravitational field at the surface is: For Ceres: 0.28 meters per second squared For Earth: 9.8 meters per second squared
I am not too sure but as soon as I find out, I will write it.

The gravity on Ceres - which is a "dwarf planet" or "plutoid" in what is called the asteroid belt - is 3% of Earth's. If the weight of an average man on Earth is 175 pounds, then on Ceres he would weigh 2.25 pounds.
Earth has more gravity than Ceres does. Ceres gravity is 3% of that of Earth's.
The next planet after Ceres is Jupiter.
No. Ceres is classified as a dwarf planet, not a planet.
