Gravitational contraction raised the temperature of Earth early in it's formation.
The gravitational force (or attraction) between any two objects increases as the distance between them decreases. Thus, as an asteroid approaches Earth, the Earth's gravitational pull will increase as it gets nearer.
The gravitational pull of the Earth's core.
Gravitational force is the attraction between two masses. It can be explained by Force=(Mass1*Mass2)/Distance. Everything is attracted to the earth because the earth has such a large mass. So on a small scale it is just about impossible to create gravitational force.
Plate tectonics, rotation, and gravitational pull of the Sun, shift the Earth slightly, so that the Earth bulges near the Equator.
There is no contraction. The contraction she'd can mean she had or she would.
The gravitational force of the moon causes tidal bulges in the Earth's crust, leading to the rise and fall of ocean tides. This gravitational interaction between the moon and the Earth also contributes to the phenomenon of Earth's rotation slowing down over time.
The gravitational affect of the moon.
The moon's gravitational pull on Earth causes the ocean tides. The gravitational force creates a "stretching" effect on the Earth, with tides occurring as the Earth rotates within the "bulge" of water created by the moon's gravity.
the moon effect's the earth in ways of it's gravitational pull
The variables that affect gravitational potential energy are the object's mass, the height at which the object is lifted, and the strength of the gravitational field (usually constant near the surface of the Earth).
No the Earth's gravitational attraction is caused by its mass. It varies slightly because the Earth is an oblate spheroid not a sphere, and as a result of variation in the density of crustal rocks. The tilt of Earth's axis has no affect on gravitational attraction.
There is no scientific evidence to suggest that the gravitational poles will switch. The Earth's magnetic poles can undergo a reversal, but this does not affect the gravitational poles. The gravitational pull on Earth is primarily due to the mass of Earth itself, not the orientation of its magnetic field.
Tides are caused by the gravitational forces on Earth from the Moon and the Sun.
A different amount of gravitational force will change the weight, but not the mass.
Because the sun is 93 million miles away, whereas the earth is, well, right here!

The moons gravitational pull is what causes tides.
