The mass won't change noticeably. (Note that the weightwill chage quite a lot in this case.)

What is the gravity on the moon compared to earth's gravity?

An object on the moon's surface weighs 0.165 as much as it does on the Earth's surface.


What is the weight of a 1kg object on the surface of the moon?

The weight of a 1kg object on the surface of the Moon would be approximately 1/6th of its weight on Earth. This means the object would weigh about 0.1667 kg on the Moon due to the Moon's lower gravity compared to Earth's.


How does the earths radius affect the gravitational force on a object at its surface?

The Earth and the object exert a gravitational force on each other, but only the Earth's is big enough to measure. So, the formula for gravitational force include the distance from one body's surface to its center and the same for the other body. The length of the radius is directly proportional to the body's gravitational force.


What is the differanceof the force of gravity at the earth's surface and one hundred miles away from the surfaceof the earth?

The force of gravity between the Earth and you or any other object is inverselyproportional to the square of the distance between the centers of the Earth andthe object.On the surface, that distance is the Earth's radius, let's say 3,960 miles on the average.(3,960/4,080)2 = 0.942So your weight at an altitude of 120 miles is about 5.8% less than it is on the surface.


What is the gravity percentage on the moon?

Compared to what ? -- Compared to the surface of Mars, it's 43.7% as much. -- Compared to the surface of Pluto, it's 2.8 times as much. -- Compared to the surface of the Earth, it's 16.5% as much.

What is the distance between earth and heaven?

In terms of physical measurement, the distance between Earth and heaven is not known as heaven is considered a spiritual or metaphysical realm, not a physical location in space. Different belief systems and cultures have their own interpretations of where or what heaven is.


What factor affects the size of the force between Earth and an object?

-- the mass of the object -- the distance between the object and the earth's center (or the object's height off the surface)


What is the gravity on the moon compared to earth's gravity?

An object on the moon's surface weighs 0.165 as much as it does on the Earth's surface.


Is the force of gravity expierenced by an object fifty miles above the earth the same as if it were on the earth?

No, the force of gravity decreases with distance from the Earth's surface, following the inverse-square law. At 50 miles above the Earth, the force of gravity is slightly weaker compared to being on the Earth's surface, but it is still present and responsible for keeping the object in orbit around the Earth.


What two factor's determind how much gravitational potential energy is an object?

mass and distance between the object and earth's surface.


What is potential energy dependent an object's weight and distance from earth's surface?

Gravitational potential energy.


What is the point were an azimuth originates?

Azimuth is the distance of a celestial object from the observer who is generally somewhere on the Earth's surface

As an object approaches the Earth's surface, what will its acceleration be?


Can the earth be regarded as the point object when it is describing its yearly journey around the sun?

Approximating Earth as a point object is close enough for most practical purposes. The diameter of Earth is insignificant, compared to the distance to the Sun.


What is a force the gravitational force extended on an object by earth?

The force of gravity is an attractive force exerted by Earth on an object. It is what gives an object weight and is responsible for keeping objects grounded on the surface of the Earth. The strength of the gravitational force depends on the mass of the object and the distance between the object and the center of the Earth.

How much above earth distance an object do not falls?

An object will continue to orbit Earth at a certain distance above its surface, as long as its velocity counteracts the gravitational pull of Earth. This is known as achieving orbit, where the object remains in free fall around Earth due to a balance between its forward momentum and the pull of gravity.
