What is the surface gravity of the planet Ceres compared to earth?

One of the largest asteroids, Ceres was discovered in 1801. With its estimated average radius of about 461 km, and its estimated mass of 9.43 x 1020 kg (0.00015 of Earth's mass, 0.0128 of the Moon's mass), the acceleration of gravity on its surface is estimated at 0.27 m/s2, or 2.8% of its value on the Earth's surface. If you weigh 150 pounds on Earth, you'll weigh about 4pounds 2.1ounces on Ceres.


Can humans live on Ceres?

In our day and age, humans can live anywhere, because we now have the ability to transport a small region with a living environment to any place we want to go, such as earth-orbit or the surface of the moon. But if we don't recreate a living environment ... with air, water, pressure, temperature, food, radiation shielding, etc. ... then humans can't live anywhere except the surface of the Earth. And even there, there are large areas that are definitely questionable, like the Sahara, the top of Mt. Everest, the north Pole, etc.


If a hammer and feather were dropped simultaneously from the same height on the asteroid Ceres which would hit the ground first?

On the asteroid Ceres, both the hammer and feather would hit the ground at the same time due to the very low gravitational pull compared to Earth. This phenomenon is in line with Galileo's principle that objects of different mass will fall at the same rate in a vacuum.

Does Ceres have gravity?

Oh, dude, of course Ceres has gravity! It's a dwarf planet in our solar system, not some floating balloon at a birthday party. It's got enough gravity to hold itself together and even has a little bit of an atmosphere. So yeah, Ceres is definitely bringing the gravity to the party.


What is Ceres' gravity compared to Earth?

The acceleration of gravity on the surface of the dwarf planet Ceres is listed as 0.27 m/s2. That's 2.75% of its value on Earth. If you weigh 200 pounds on Earth, then you would weigh 51/2 pounds on Ceres, not counting all the stuff you'd need to wear just to stay alive there.
