No. Except for insignificant effects related to Special Relativity, the mass remains constant. The weight, on the other hand, changes. Weight is calcualted as:

weight = mass x gravity

Where "gravity" is the acceleration due to gravity.

Does any other planet have gravity?

Yes, all planets have gravity. Gravity is a force that attracts objects with mass towards each other, so every celestial body with mass, including planets, has its own gravitational pull.


What are is the Sun and the planets attracted to each other by?

Gravity and inertia. The Sun's gravity holds all the planets in orbit with its immense gravity, and the planets have no tendency to change their orbits due to the law of inertia which implies that the planets will stay in their elliptical patterns until a force acts on them to change that status.


Is mass larger on bidder planets or smaller?

Mass does not change with gravity. Weight increases on BIGGER planets and decreases on smaller planets.


Is there gravity on other planets in the solar system?

Yes there is gravity on other planets. In fact, there is gravity on object that has mass. That gravity is just really small for objects with little mass. We only see gravity like we experience on Earth when the mass becomes really large. If you require proof that those other planets have a gravitational pull you need only remember that NASA has sent multiple space probes to other planet and put them into orbit around that planet. An impossible feat for an object what has no gravity.


Is the mass and gravity of Earth used as a standard of comparison with other planets?

Yes, Earth's mass and gravity are frequently used as a standard of comparison with other planets in our solar system and beyond. Scientists use Earth as a reference point for understanding the characteristics of other planets and celestial bodies. Earth's mass and gravity influence many aspects of our daily lives and the planet's ecosystem.

Why is your gravity less on other planets?

On other planets your gravity doesn't change. Your weight however changes based on the mass of the planet. For example, on a planet with less mass than Earth, a person will weigh less than they normally do.


Is mass affected by gravity on earth and other planets?

No. Weight is affected by gravity.


Where do the planets get gravity?

Planets have gravity because they have mass.


Does any other planet have gravity?

Yes, all planets have gravity. Gravity is a force that attracts objects with mass towards each other, so every celestial body with mass, including planets, has its own gravitational pull.


Is there gravity on all of the planets?

There is gravity everywhere in the universe. It attracts every speck of mass to every other speck of mass.


How do you calculate weight on other planets?

To calculate weight on other planets, you can use the formula: Weight Mass x Gravity. The mass of an object remains the same, but the gravity on different planets varies. You can find the gravity of a planet by looking it up online or using a formula. Then, multiply the mass of the object by the gravity of the planet to find the weight on that planet.


Does this planet have gravity?

All mass produces a gravity field. All planets have mass. Therefore all planets have gravity.


How is there gravity for the planets?

They all have mass, and masses are attracted to each other.


Do other planets have graivity?

Every speck of mass in the Universe "has gravity".

Does the sun give planets gravity?

No. Planets have gravity as a result of their own mass.
