Why does earth have gravity when earth is in space?
because the earth has mass. Gravity is a the force of attraction that is related to the mass of an object. The greater the mass, the stronger the force of gravity.
Difference between center of mass and center of gravity?
The center of mass is a geometrical measurement not considering the weight distribution. The center of gravity is one location on a particular mass structure where the distribution of weight is the same no matter the direction of the measurement as it pertains to that one particular mass structure.
Does the planet Earth have the property of mass?
yes the earth does have a mass because it also is affected by gravity, the gravity from the sun
Why is there more gravity on Pluto than on Earth?
There isn't. The "surface gravity" is dependent on the mass (of the planet, etc.) and the distance of the surface from the center of mass. Pluto has MUCH LESS mass than Earth and the gravity is much less on Pluto.
What is the force causes mass movement?
gravity
How is gravity and ice alike?
Gravity and ice are alike in that they both have mass. Gravity is the force of attraction between two objects with mass, while ice is the solid form of water, which has mass due to the presence of molecules.
Is weight and mass alike?
Weight is the measure of gravity that is holding you down. Mass is how much is being held down. Mass of a person will not change if suddenly they're transported to the moon. The weight, however, will because the pull of gravity is less. So they are related, but not alike.
How are planets and sun are alike?
They tend to be round, spherical objects which are visible in space. They have great mass and their own gravity.
Are weight and mass similar?
Weight and mass are related but not the same. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force exerted on an object by gravity. Mass is constant, while weight can vary depending on the strength of gravity.
How are the sun and the moon alike?
They are both alike because they both have no gravity
Are gravity and no gravity alike?
They are similar, in that one is the absence of the other. However, they are not opposites, so they could not be considered 'alike'.
Gravity and how mass effects it?
gravity and how mass is effected by it
What is the mass and force of gravity?
Gravity is a force but has no mass.
How are weight and mass similar?
Weight is how gravity is affecting the mass of an object. While mass stays the same no matter where it is, the weight of an object changes depending on how strong the gravity is where the object is. For example, you weigh less on the moon than you do on earth because earth is much bigger than the moon is, therefore the more gravity it has. :-D :O ;)
Does mass determine the force of gravity?
You're on to it! Gravity appears to be a property of mass. No mass - no gravity. But exactly what gravity is we don't yet know.
Does gravity depend on mass or weight?
Gravity depends on the mass of an object. Weight, on the other hand, is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass. So, weight depends on both an object's mass and the strength of gravity acting on it.
Does mass mean the same as gravity?
No, mass and gravity are not the same. Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object, while gravity is a force that pulls objects with mass towards each other. Gravity is influenced by the mass of objects.
