A person would be squashed by gravity on Mars if there were a large slab of rock
on top of him.
The acceleration of gravity on Mars is 3.77 meters per second2 ... about 38% of
its value on Earth. So an astronaut who weighs 200 pounds with all his gear on
Earth would have to drag around 76 pounds on Mars.

∙ 16y agoNo, as Mars is actually smaller than the Earth. Thus you will only feel closer to a third of the Earth's gravity when walking on Mars. If you could stand on massive planets like Jupiter or Saturn, though, you would almost certainly be crushed.

∙ 12y agoNo, in fact the force of gravity there is weaker than on Earth due to Mars being less massive than the Earth!
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoAbsolutely not. Quite the opposite, as Mars has about a third of the gravity of Earth.
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoNo. The gravity on Mars is weaker than that on Earth.
Wiki User
∙ 8y agoNo. The gravity of Mars is only 38% that of Earth. So you would actually be much lighter on Mars.
Wiki User
∙ 7y agoNo. The surface gravity on Mars is only about 38% of what it is on Earth.

Would people be squashed with the gravity of uranus?
Not at all! Since Uranus is gaseous rather than solid, its force of gravity is actually less than Earth's. If you weighed 100 pounds on Earth, you would weigh 86 pounds on the surface of Uranus, if you could find some place to stand on. You would freeze to death on Uranus, though, as the temperature is around -300 degrees F.
When a force is applied that moves an object in the direction of the applied force is gravity done?
Gravity is indeed a force, but only one out of many. magnetic, frictional, mechanical ... . When an ordinary force applied to an object, (me pushing my wheelbarrow) this would not be considered as being affected by gravity.
What would happen to an object when normal force and force of gravity is applied?
It depends on the magnitude of the forces.
What force works with gravity to keep the planets from being pulled into the sun?
That's "centrifugal force". It's not a "real" force like gravity, but is a convenient way of describing the effect of the inertia of the planets. (The planets would move in straight lines if they were not in a gravity field.)
What happen if the earth gravity force was less or more?
If gravity increased you would lift up and float in the sky.If gravity decreased you would be pulled to the ground even more than you are now
Would a person be squashed by Saturn's gravity?
On Uranus, you would choke, be squashed, and burn up.
What force present of you lift a pencil off the top of a desk?
That would be the force of gravity.
Can force become gravity?
No. Gravity is a property of matter that produces force. But there's no way a force is going to 'become' gravity, although a constant linear acceleration would be indistinguishable from gravity.
Can their be negative gravity?
Yes, there can be negative gravity. If a gravity is a pulling force then in the other hands a negative gravity would be a pushing force, in other words, the negative gravity would push us to wherever and the positive gravity on Earth would pull us.
What is it when there is no net force of gravity?
When there is no net force of gravity, all the opposing forces of gravity cancel out. For example, most of the way to the moon, the gravity pulling from the moon would cancel out the gravity from the Earth. At that point, there would be no net force of gravity. KEEP IN MIND, that this is something very different from the weightless feeling you get when falling. When falling, gravity still affects you (hence you accelerate downwards). If there is no net force of gravity, gravity will not affect you at all.
The what of an object changes if the force of gravity changes?
The weight of the object would change if gravity changes. cw: Yes, if the FORCE of gravity changes, the FORCE of the object in the downward direction changes.

What if time stopped?
There would be no gravity so we all would die as the gravitational force pulls out when no gravity
Give the name of the force which cause someone to speed up as they fall?
gravity
What force causes a teardrop to roll down someone's cheek?

Would the force of of gravity on ganymede be more or less than the gravity on the moon?
less
What is the force from gravity?
If your question rephrased is 'What force does gravity give?' then the answer would be a Gravitational Force. In depth, a Gravitational force is a pulling force which, when opposing other forces, is usually over 55% dominant.
