What else can I help you with?
An astronaut inside a small space ship orbiting around the earth cannot detect gravity.If the space station orbiting around the earth has a large size can he hope to detect gravity?
If the size of the space station is large enough, then the astronaut will detect the change in Earth's gravity (g).
Would there be gravity on a space ship in open space moving at high speeds and if so in what direction would it move?
Yes, there would still be gravity on a spaceship in open space due to the ship's acceleration creating a force similar to gravity. The direction of this artificial gravity would be towards the floor of the spaceship, simulating the gravitational pull we experience on Earth.
In what ways do you think the lack of gravity facilitated the astronaut's work on the space ship?
kmh
Do you weigh less on earth than in a space ship orbiting 800 kilometers above earth?
No - more on Earth - in orbit you're weightless.
Can the gravity inside a space station be controlled?
The larger the object, the more 'space' is displaced, and thus, the greater the gravity. The Moon displaces less 'space' than the Earth, so the Moon has less gravity. The space station displaces very little space AND its' shape does not lend itself to taking advantage of the spacial displacement, so it doesn't result in very much gravity. Stand in a swimming pool and hold a beach ball under the water: the pressure of the water on the ball is a simulation of gravity. Hold a tennis ball under the water: far less pressure, yes? Now, hold something with the exact same collective mass as the beach ball (lets say one of those 'noodle' things the kids play with) and you'll have far less pressure on it than on the beach ball. Why? It has the same mass as the beach ball, so why isn't there the same amount of pressure (gravity) on it? Because the 'shape' of it does not lend itself to take advantage of the gravitational pressure. Gravity can, however, be simulated with inertia. If the ship spins... centripical force and all that.

An astrounaut inside a small space ship orbiting around the earth cannot detect gravity.Can a space station of much bigger size than the space ship hope to detect gravity?
The chances are pretty low because it doesn't matter on the size to detect gravity.
Why are astronauts in a space ship wieghtless?
There is no gravity in space.
What is life like on a space ship?
fun cause theres no gravity!!!!!!!

Are astronauts weight less in space?
Yes weight changes due to gravity and mass is constant in terms of gravity. There is less gravity in space than the earth so they would weigh less but their mass would be the same. They have less gravity pulling on them, so yes. Unless they have artificial gravity creators in or on the space ship that I don't know about.
Why does sand not float on the moon?
There is still gravity on the moon. We know that because, how else would the space ship be able to land? If something as heavy as a space ship can stay down, so can sand.
If gravity equals 1.6meter squared what is your mass?
Your mass doesn't depend on gravity. You have the same mass whether you're on earth, on the moon, or in a space ship on the way.
What is a mariners?
A person who directs or assists in the navigation of a ship; sailor. or One of a series of U.S. space probes the obtained scientific information while flying by or orbiting around Mars, Mercury, and Venus.
Is it possible to orbit a planet and anchor down a manned ship and be able to pull the ship and its cargo back to the orbiting ship?
No. With current technology that is impossible - no cable would be strong enough for that. For more information, search Wikipedia, or other sources, for "space elevator".
