The earth is larger than the moon (about 4 times the size)12,756km vs 3,476 km in diameter . Jupiter is 318 times the mass of earth. The gravitational pull of Jupiter is immense!
What else can I help you with?
Would an object weigh more on the earth or the moon?
The planet Earth has more gravitation pull than its moon. Therefore the weight on earth is more than that on the moon. The mass though does not change.
How do the moon earth and sun moves?
Earth moves because the of sun's gravitation pull. Same applies to the Moon.
What is the moon's gravitational pull relative to the earth's gravitational pull the moon?
The force of gravitation attracting the earth and moon toward each other is exactly the same force on both bodies.Just as the force of gravitation that attracts you toward the earth is exactly the same as the force that attractsthe earth toward you.
How does Newton law universal gravitation apply to Earth and the moon?
it applies to the earth and moon because their two objects in the universe that attract each other.
Which of the following forces exerted by the earth on the moon keeps the moon in orbit?
The force that keeps the moon in orbit around the Earth is gravity. Specifically, the gravitational pull between the Earth and the moon is what keeps the moon in its elliptical orbit.
What causes the Moon to revolve around Earth?
The gravitational pull of the earth and the gravitation of the moon both contribute to make the moon orbit Earth. In a similar fashion, Earth orbits around the sun due to gravitational pull.
How much would a person who weigh 200 pounds on earth weigh on the moon?
The gravitation pull of the Earth is 6 times the gravitational pull of the moon. If the weight ofÊa person on Earth is 200 pounds, it is 200/6 or 33 and 1/3 pounds on the moon.
What type of tide is created when the sun's gravitation pull on earth is at its least?
A larger, more powerful tide to the side of the moon, and a weaker, smaller tide toward the sun
What does the moon do with the water?
The moon's gravitation forcecauses the waves and other water to be affected. That's how we get the tides and such--from the push and pull of the moon's gravitation force.
Does the law of universal gravitation also mean that the earth is attracted toward the moon?
In a way, yes, since the moon does have some sort of weak gravitational pull, the Earth would be somewhat attracted to it.
What would happen if the earth lost it's gravitational pull holding the moon in place?
There won't be any gravitation on earth so then we will be floating in mid air.
How do waves generate energy?
it comes from the gravitation pull from the moon.
