There is a force of gravity in both directions between every pair of objects,

attracting them toward each other. There's no limit on the distance.

There is a force of gravity in both directions between the lint in your pocket

and the smallest grain of sand on the beach on the far side of the farthest

planet orbiting the farthest star in the farthest galaxy from Earth, attracting

them toward each other.

How does the moon gravity compare with earth?

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.


Why is gravity on the moon not as strong as on earth?

The moon has far less mass than Earth, so the force of gravity will be much lower.


Where is there no gravity other than the moon?

There is gravity on the moon but not as much as on Earth. This is because the amount of gravity depends on the mass of the object creating the gravity and the moon is much smaller and has much lower mass than the Earth. If you are far enough away from the Earth (and moon) their will be a point where there is no noticeable gravity.


Why is it that the earth is not affected by the Moon's gravity?

Earth is affected by the moon's gravity. The moon's gravity exerts just as much force on Earth as Earth's gravity does on the moon, but since Earth is far more massive, it undergoes far less acceleration.


Why water do not go towards the moon if moon attracts it?

The earth's gravity is far stronger than that of the moon, so it overpowers it.


Why is their less gravity on your moon than earth?

because the moon it so far away that gravity can not reach it so u wont be able to stay on the ground of the moon for very long


Do I weigh more on the moon than I do on earth?

Considerably less because the Moon has far less mass then the Earth hence far weaker gravity.


If you hit a golf ball as hard as you can on the surface of the moon how far will it travel?

very far


Why is there a high tide on the far side of the Earth?

Tides occur because the strength of an object's gravity depends on the distance from that object. Gravity is stronger at smaller distances. The moons gravity pulls Earth toward it, causing Earth to wobble around a point about a thousand miles below the surface as the moon orbits. Since the water on the far side of Earth experience slightly less lunar gravity than the rest of the planet it lags behind a bit, creating a high tide.


Why would your weight be different on the moon but your mass be the same?

Weight takes into account gravity as far as I am aware. Gravity is a force that pushes down on us on earth, however on the moon, this is a different case.


How many people go into moon?

As far as I know, none so far. They have only walked on its surface.


What is Neptune's Gravity compare to Earth Gravity?

Neptune has 17 times the mass of Earth, but it is also larger, and gravity diminishes the farther you are from the center of gravity. So, if it had a solid surface, Neptune's surface gravity would only be slightly higher than Earth's (14% greater or 1.14 G). The gravitational acceleration at the point where its atmospheric pressure is equal to Earth's at sea level is 11.15 meters per second squared.The pull of gravity on the surface a planet or moon depends on two things:The mass of the planet or moon.How far its surface is from the center of gravity.The related links include a good website that shows you the comparison between the pull of gravity (how much you would weigh) on the surface of all the planets.
