What is the gravitational force between the Earth and your body called?
Your weight. Weight is the definition of the force between the earth and other objects. Thus you weight is the gravitational force acting on you from the earth.
How do you use gravitational force in a sentence?
Gravitational force is caused by acceleration due to gravity and an objects mass. Gravitational force is the same as an object's weight. Gravitational force is something scientists try to measure. Physics is an area of science where people study gravitational force. Gravitational force is important in terms of the way planets orbit the sun in our solar system.
What will be his weight if he travels to mars which has a gravitational force of 4 n kg?
His weight will be 41% of what it is on Earth.
When spacecraft goes on moon how it revolves after leaving earths gravitational pull?
ahhh now.... When a spacecraft leaves earths atmoshere it does not leave earths gravitational pull! the moon itself is in earths gravitational pull. which is what stops the moon from floating away so as far as i can imagine if you put a space craft on the moon you have not left earths gravitational pull or the E.G.P
What is an object that different on other planets in the solar system?
Weight & gravitational force
What is the measure of earths gravitational force on an object is the object?
Commonly referred to as the object's "weight".Note: The object also exerts the same identical gravitational force on the earth.Earth
About how much is the Moon's gravitational force compares to the earths?
The weight of any object on the surface of the moon is 16.55% of its weight on the surface of the Earth.
How much does Jupiter weigh and what is it's volume?
The weight of Jupiter will depend on the context of the body whose gravitational attraction is the force which gives it weight. Its volume is 1.4313*10^15 cubic kilometres, which is equivalent to the volume of 1321 earths.
How is weight affected by gravitational force?
how is weight affected by gravitational force?
Is there a gravitational force like earths on mars?
yes
What is earths gravitational force?
9.8 N/kg
Is mass the measure of earths gravitational attraction?
No. Mass is the quantity of actual stuff of which an object is composed.The force of gravitational attraction between the Earth and the object'smass is called the object's "weight" on Earth.
How you relate weight and gravitation force?
Weight is the gravitational force, weight =mg.
How mass affects the gravitation force?
mass varies directly with gravitational force. Gravitational force is just another way of saying weight, which is represented by the equation, F=W=mg ; where F is force of gravity, W is weight, m is mass, and g is acceleration due to earths gravity (roughly 9.8 m/s2)
Who invented the gravity of force?
it was invented by the earths gravitational feild
What is earth's gravitational force compared with Uranus?
is 20x earths
Is weight measured of the gravitational force on an object?
Weight is gravitational force on an objects Mass. Mass don't change when gravity changes but the weight does.
