What else can I help you with?
What of the changes below would increase the force of Earth's gravity on an object?
The only way to change anythings gravity is to change its' mass. (apex) Increase the mass of the object Decrease the distance of the object from Earth
When a astronaut is in space her body is acted upon by increased gravitational force from the earth?
No, it would be with a decreased force of gravity.
Could the earth ever loose its gravity?
No, the Earth's gravity is a fundamental force that arises from its mass. Gravity is what keeps everything on the Earth's surface and holds the atmosphere in place. It would require a significant change in the Earth's mass or a cataclysmic event to alter or eliminate its gravitational pull.
Suppose you took a trip to the moon how and why would your weight change would your mass change too?
Your mass would stay the same, but your weight would change. Weight is the effect of gravity acting upon an object, where as mass is the amount of matter an object has. Your "weight" measured on the Moon would be one-sixth your weight on Earth.
What is gravity on Mars compared to earth?
The gravity on the surface of Mars is approximately one third of that on the surface of Earth. Comment: I always say "about 38%".

How much would the force of gravity at the surface of the Earth differ if Earth volume were increased 125 times and its mass 25 times?
If the Earth's volume were increased by 125 times and its mass by 25 times, the force of gravity at the surface would remain the same. This is because the force of gravity depends on the mass of an object and the distance from its center, but increasing both mass and volume proportionally cancels out any difference in gravity at the surface.
Would gravity on venus squash a human?
Yes, the gravity on Venus is about 91% of the gravity on Earth. So, a human on Venus would not be significantly squashed by the gravity, but they would feel heavier than on Earth due to the increased gravitational force.
If earth stops to rotate what happens to gravity?
Nothing, the force of gravity is not affected by Earth's rotation. However measurement of WEIGHT would change.
If you weigh 100kg and went to the moon which has 16 the gravity of earth would your weight change?
yes it would change
What problem would you encounter if the pull of the earth's gravity suddenly increased?
You Would Encounter A Feeling Of Enormous Weight And People Screaming
When a astronaut is in space her body is acted upon by increased gravitational force from the earth?
No, it would be with a decreased force of gravity.
How would the mass of an object change if it were on the moon?
The mass of an object would remain the same on the moon as it is on Earth. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, so it does not change with location. However, the weight of the object would be less on the moon due to the moon's lower gravity compared to Earth.

No, the Earth's gravity is a fundamental force that arises from its mass. Gravity is what keeps everything on the Earth's surface and holds the atmosphere in place. It would require a significant change in the Earth's mass or a cataclysmic event to alter or eliminate its gravitational pull.
How does the acceleration due to gravity near Earth's surface change if the mass increased but its diameter didnt change?
The force of gravity between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses, and it also depends on the distance between their centers. If the distance between them doesn't change, and either or both masses increase, then the gravitational forces between them would increase. One important implication of this theory is the expectation that if you eat more, and cause your own mass to increase, then your weight will increase, in direct proportion to your mass. Do I smell a Nobel Prize for investigating this theory ?
