An object on the moon's surface weighs 16.55% as much as the same object
weighs when it's on the Earth's surface. That's about 1/6 as much.
What else can I help you with?
How does the Moon's movement effect the tides?
The moons gravity 'pulls' the earths water creating a 'tide.'
How does gravity affect the movement of the moons?
Earths gravity keeps the moon from flying off in the same way the sun keeps earth in balance.
How much more is Earths surface of gravity than the Moon's?
Earths surface of gravity is 4.6m/s2 more than moons.
What planets gravity is one-fourth the gravity of earth?
Of the planets in our solar system, Mars has the lowest surface gravity of around 38% of earths - over one third. This comes closest to the 25%. We then have moons and dwarf planets, but these have much lower surface gravities.
Is the sun earths gravity?
No, the Sun does not have Earth's gravity; rather, it has its own gravitational pull, which is much stronger due to its larger mass. The Sun's gravity is what keeps the Earth and other planets in orbit around it. Earth's gravity, on the other hand, is what keeps objects on its surface and influences the orbits of its moons and artificial satellites.
How does the sun's gravity compare to earths gravity?
The sun gravity is stronger
How much stronger is the earths gravity than the moons gravity?
The moon's gravity is about 1/6th of Earth's.
What is the the earths moons atmosphere?
There is no atmosphere on the moon. There is insufficient gravity to keep an atmosphere there.
Why is there the moons gravity is only16 of the earths?
The earth has a colossal size more mass
What is the compare of the earth and the moon in terms of size and surface gravity?
earth is 81.3 times the mass of the moon . acceleration due to gravity at earths surface = 9.82 (m/s)/s acceleration due to gravity at moons surface = 1.62 (m/s)/s . 1 kg at earths surface, force = 1 * 9.82 = 9.82 newtons 1 kg at moons surface, force = 1 * 1.62 = 1.62 newtons
How does the Moon's movement effect the tides?
The moons gravity 'pulls' the earths water creating a 'tide.'
What is the exact distance when the earths gravity becomes 0 or moons gravity takes over?
We are not sure. try looking it up on a different website
What is the gravity on the moon lo?
About 0.183g, where one g is the earths gravity, so about one fifth of the earths gravity. It is similar to our own moons surface gravity.
How does gravity affect the movement of the moons?
Earths gravity keeps the moon from flying off in the same way the sun keeps earth in balance.
How would your weight change if you went from the Earth to the moon?
Your would weigh 1/6th as much as you do here on mother Earth. The how is our moons' mass, and therefore its' gravity, is about 1/6 as much as the Earths'. Its' gravity well is not as deep as the Earths.
How much more is Earths surface of gravity than the Moon's?
Earths surface of gravity is 4.6m/s2 more than moons.
How come moons orbit Jupiter even though sun have greater gravitational pull?
If you compare surface gravity, yes the sun's gravity is stronger than that of Jupiter. But gravity decreases in strength as you get farther from the object. Jupiter's moons are close enough to Jupiter and far enough from the sun that Jupiter's gravity has more influence.
