Best Answer

Gravity and mass are intrinsically related. Therefore any object on Earth that has a greater mass than your whole body will exert a greater gravitational pull than your whole body.

What objects will the earth exert a greater gravitational pull than on a bicycle?

No, the pull is essentially the same on all objects at the surface of the earth.


The force of attraction that all objects exert on each?

Gravity.

Does gravity exert the same force on all falling objects?

No. Gravity can be thought of as a force, but that is due to its effect on anything that possesses mass and/or energy. The effect that gravity exerts on any object is proportional to the amount of mass that is responsible for the presence of gravity and is also proportional to the amount of mass possessed by the object experiencing that gravitational presence. Therefore a gravitational field will exert a greater 'force' on a greater mass. However, mass also possesses the characteristic of inertia, which is a measure of resistance to any change to a state of motion - which effectively is a resistance to the effect of gravity. Inertia is also proportional to mass. What this means is that the greater the mass, the greater the pull it experiences due to gravity but at the same time, the greater is its resistance to that pull. Hence all falling objects experience the same acceleration due to the effect of gravity which is not the same as the force. All objects fall at the same rate. ========================= (Note: Gravity does not exert the same force on all objects, which is the reason why big people "weigh" more than smaller people do on the same planet.)

If Earth increases its mass, how would that affect the gravitational pull a person experiences on Earth?

The gravitation pull will increase relative to the amount of increased mass. The Mass of the Objects The more mass two objects have, the greater the force of gravity the masses exert on each other. If one of the masses is doubled, the force of gravity between the objects is doubled.


Which object does gravity exert a greater force on?

The one with the greatest mass that is closest to the surface of the Earth.


Why does earth exert a greater gravitational force on you than other objects do?

Because it's both massive and close by. Newton's law of gravitation states that gravity becomes stronger the more massive the object, and the closer it is.


Why is weight of objects different on the moon than on the earth?

Gravity on the moon is one-sixth of that on Earth, so you will exert less force on the moon.


When you jump on the ground does the earth exert a greater force back up on you because it is so massive?

yes


What types of objects experience gravitational forces?

All objects on Earth experience gravitational force to a certain degree. Earth's atmosphere grants it's objects a great gravitational force.+++"All objects throughout the Universe experience gravitational force... " Not just on Earth. The Earth's orbit around the Sun is a function of the Earth's velocity and the Sun's gravity.The Earth's atmosphere does NOT "grant" any gravitational force of its objects (whatever those may be), but is itself subject to the gravity of the planet; hence both it still being here, and exerting a mean pressure of I Bar (by definition) or 100kPa at sea-level.


How does mass and gravity distance effect gravity?

The larger the mass of an object, the greater the force it will exert on other objects. But as the distance from that object becomes greater, the gravitational pull becomes smaller. For example, the sun has a larger mass than the earth, so gravity on the suns surface would be much greater than on earths surface. Also, as you get further and further away from the earth, the less you are influenced by its gravity.


Does Earth exert a force on Mercury?

Yes. There is a gravitational force of attraction between every pair of mass objects. EVERY pair.


Is it possible for gravational pull of gravity to be any weaker than dwaf planet Pluto's gravity?

Of course it is possible. You exert gravitational pull which is much weaker. A dust particle will exert a pull which is even smaller.


Out of the Sun Earth the Moon and a Book which one exert the stronget gravitational force on you?

The Earth exerts the greatest gravitational force on you because it is the most massive object you are closest to. The Earth exerts a force equal to your weight. The other objects exert gravitational forces but are not very noticeable because they are either low in mass or separated from you by great distance.
