How would the sun's contract to a smaller volume affect the gravitational force on its surface?

It will be smaller so less gravity


Would something heavier and smaller than the earth be attracted to it or would the earth be attracted to the object?

Gravity always work both ways, but proportional to the weight. So humans pull on the Earth just as the Earth pull on humans. Only that humans are so much lighter that our pull isn't much noticed. Something that's heavier than the Earth, well then the heavier object would exert the greater pull. But both would still pull on each other.


Would the acceleration due to gravity on mars be bigger or smaller than on earth and why?

The acceleration due to gravity on Mars would be smaller than on Earth. This is because Mars has less mass than Earth, so its gravitational pull is weaker. On Mars, the acceleration due to gravity is about 3.71 m/s^2, while on Earth it is about 9.81 m/s^2.


How would the pull of gravity be different on Mars than earth?

The pull of gravity on Mars is about 38% of that on Earth, due to its smaller mass. This means that objects weigh less on Mars compared to Earth.


Why would a tin of beans would weigh differently on different planets?

A tin of beans would weigh differently on different planets due to variations in gravitational pull. Gravity is stronger on larger planets and weaker on smaller ones, affecting the weight of objects. Therefore, the tin of beans would feel heavier on a planet with higher gravity and lighter on a planet with lower gravity.

What does gravity do for us humans?

It keeps us on the ground without it we would be floating.


Would a smaller planet than earth with the same shape and size have more gravity?

If the planet is smaller, then it can't have the same size. If you assume that a smaller planet has the same density as Earth (and therefore less mass), its surface gravity will be smaller. If you assume that a smaller planet has the same mass as Earth (and therefore more density), its surface gravity will be greater. This is because we would be closer to the planet's center - or to the planet's matter in general.


Gravety on Mucery?

The gravity on Mercury is about 38% of Earth's gravity. This means that objects on Mercury weigh less than they would on Earth. The weaker gravity is due to Mercury's smaller mass and size compared to Earth.


Why will humans feel lighter on mars?

Humans will feel lighter on Mars compared to Earth because Mars has less gravity. The gravity on Mars is about 38% of Earth's gravity, so a person who weighs 100 pounds on Earth would weigh only 38 pounds on Mars.


Is a asteroid smaller or bigger than earth?

Smaller. Something as big as the Earth would have so much gravity that it would probably have collided with something else and been eliminated


Do mars has a stronger gravity or weaker gravity than earth?

Mars has weaker gravity than Earth. The gravity on Mars is about 38% of the gravity on Earth. This means that objects on Mars weigh less than they would on Earth.


How would these gravity forces change if the Earth got much smaller?

If Earth became much smaller, the force of gravity on its surface would decrease because gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of the planet. The smaller size would also result in less gravitational attraction between objects on Earth and a weaker gravitational pull overall.


What is a sentence with the word gravity?

It would be cool without gravity. Without gravity we would be able to fly and jump very high.


What would happen if we didn't have gravity -?

It would be impossible NOT to have gravity, on planet earth atleast. But if we were to have no gravity, we would just float around unable to stay in one spot for atleast a minute. That includes everything else, trees, water ect. would not stay in place. This would NOT be a suitable place for humans to inhabit. Gravity is the force that pulls everything towards the center of the earth. (Thank you gravity. :D)


What are the effects of environmental degradation to the behavior of humans?

the planets orbit the sun right.so that means that the earth a part to so if gravity ,then what would earth land on if there was gravity


What is the gravity on Venus compared to earth?

The gravity on Venus would be about 90.4% of Earth's (0.904 g). Although the planet has a smaller mass, it also has a slightly smaller diameter.
