What else can I help you with?
Does a planet have less gravity if it is further away from the sun?
No. The surface gravity of a planet is a product of its size and mass. It has nothing to do with distance from the sun. However, a planet farther away from the sun will experience a weaker pull from the sun's gravity.
What is the gravity on the planet Io?
Io is a moon of Jupiter, not a planet. Surface gravity is about 18% of the gravity on Earth.
Why weight would be different on planets by talking about gravity?
Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass. Because gravity varies from planet to planet, an object would weigh different amounts depending on the gravitational pull of that planet. For example, an object would weigh more on a planet with stronger gravity, like Jupiter, and less on a planet with weaker gravity, like Mars.
Which planets have the largest accelerations of gravity?
The planet that has the largest acceleration of gravity is Jupiter. The planet with the least amount of gravity is Mercury. Actually, Pluto has less gravity than Mercury, but Pluto is not classified as a planet any more.
Does your weight change when you go to another planet?
Your weight would change on another planet due to differences in gravitational pull. For example, if you were on a planet with stronger gravity than Earth, your weight would increase. Conversely, if you were on a planet with weaker gravity, your weight would decrease.
Which planet has less gravity earth or mars?
Mars has less gravity.
Is the farther a planet is from the sun have less gravity it has?
No. The strength of gravity on a planet depends on its size and mass.
Does planet Uranus have more or less gravity than earth?
The "surface gravity" is less on Uranus.
Why does the weightyou havechange from planet to planet?
the bigger the planet the more gravity it has, the smaller the planet the less gravity it has, so if you weigh, lets say, 5 stone here on earth, you go to Jupiter and you weigh alot more as theres more gravity pulling on you, go to mercury and you'll weigh less as theres less gravity pulling on you.
Can planet grow without gravity?
Gravity comes with mass so since a planet has mass there is some gravity. the bigger the planet the more mass it has. smaller planets have less gravity. so either way there is always some gravity on a planet.
Why does this planet have less gravity than the Earth?
because it has less mass.
Why are the revolutionary times of each planet different?
the farther out a planet is the less gravity is acting on the planet by the sun
What is the force that makes you weight change planet to planet?
gravity if you are on a huge planet like juipiter there is a lot of gravity so you wiegh a lot but if youare on a planet like Pluto there is a small amount of gravity so you wigh less
Is there more or less gravity on your planet than on earth?
No. My planet (and presumably yours as well) is Earth.
What would happen if the earth rotation slowed down?
If the Earth's rotation slowed down, our we would have less gravity, and when we have less gravity we have things floating around for long nights and long days (also due to the planet slowing down). This can lead to many dis functions and could cause the appearance of anti-matter.
Why is your gravity less on other planets?
On other planets your gravity doesn't change. Your weight however changes based on the mass of the planet. For example, on a planet with less mass than Earth, a person will weigh less than they normally do.
Would the gravity on the planet Mercury squash someone?
No. The gravity on Mercury is less than half that of Earth.
