What is the gravity like on earth celestial body?
earth is a part of celestial bodies because of all the the bodies that caused earth to drop
What is the imaginary line in the heavens that runs around the earth the earth midway between the celestial poles?
Celestial Equator :)
The place where the extended axis of the Earth would touch the celestial sphere is called the celestial what?
That is also called the axis; the "end-points" of this axis are called the celestial poles.
What effect does the sun have on earth and the other planets?
The sun heats up the planets and forces them to revolve around it.
Where might you find the celestial sphere celestial equator and celestial poles?
These are imaginary locations in the sky. The "celestial sphere" is a blanket term for everything beyond the Earth. The celestial equator is the plane of the Earth's equator extended out into space. The "celestial poles" are extensions of the north pole and south pole into space. It's sometimes convenient to describe objects out in space with reference to terrestrial coordinates.
Which parameter has a greater effect on tidal forces on earth?
NO.
Which has a greater effect on tidal forces?
The Moon has a greater effect on tides, on planet Earth, than the Sun. This is despite the fact that the gravitational attraction by the Sun is greater - the reason is that tidal forces depend on the CUBE of the distance.
Does the composition of the Earth affect the motion of the Earth?
Yes. The effect of gravity on the Earth, and of Earth on other celestial bodies could be very different if the composition of the planet was different.
Does mar have gravity?
Yes, every celestial object has a gravity effect, to a greater or lesser degree than we experience here on Earth. The acceleration of gravity on Mars is 3.71 meters per second2 ... about 38% of what it is on Earth.
Effect of surface area from gravity on earth?
the greater the surface area the greater the pull
What two celestial bodies does gravity come from?
There is a pair of gravitational forces between every two masses in Creation. The two that influence the Earth the most are the Sun and the Moon. But the forces of gravity are also significant between Earth and Venus, and between Earth and Mars.
What effect does rotating the earth have on earth?
That causes day and night. It also causes the Coriolis forces.
What is the gravity like on earth celestial body?
earth is a part of celestial bodies because of all the the bodies that caused earth to drop
Why gravity on earth is greater than that of moon?
Because the Earth has 80 times as much mass as the Moon has, and the greater radius of the Earth is not enough to cancel the effect of the mass difference.
Why do constructive and destructive forces effect the earth's surface?
because they just do XD
What celestial object is about 24000 miles from the earth?
There is no celestial object at that distance.
What is the imaginary line in the heavens that runs around the earth the earth midway between the celestial poles?
Celestial Equator :)
