What else can I help you with?
If the mass of the star were doubled what effect would this have on the gravitational attraction between the star and its planet?
Doubling the mass of the star would increase the gravitational attraction between the star and its planet. The force of gravity is directly proportional to the product of their masses, so doubling the mass of the star would double the gravitational force between them.
Do planets moons atmosphere effect its gravity?
No, a planet's moons and atmosphere do not directly affect its gravity. Gravity is primarily determined by the mass of the planet itself; the more massive the planet, the stronger its gravitational pull. While moons can influence tidal forces and an atmosphere can affect pressure and weather, they do not change the fundamental gravitational force exerted by the planet.
What classified planet has the least gravity?
Mercury, because it's the smallest if you don't consider Pluto to be a planet.
What happens to the gravity on large and small planet?
Gravity depends largely on mass, the bigger the planet the greater the gravity should be
Is there gravity in Australia?
Of course there is gravity in Australia. There is gravity everywhere on the planet.
What has Jupiter's gravity may have kept asteroids from forming?
A planet
Which planet atmosphere is increased by the greenhouse effect?
Research has shown that the planet Venus has its atmosphere temperature increased by the greenhouse effect
How does the planet's gravity effect it?
I makes the planet spheical in shape.
What is the effect of gravity on the planets?
simple, the larger the planet, the greater the force of gravity.
What are the two main causes for the existence of atmospheres on the terrestrial planets?
One main reason is the gravity a dense object like a terrestial planet has. As gravity depends on the density of a object and a rocky planet has much density...our earth is the densest object in the solar system but Jupiter's gravity is more as gravity depends upon size too. The gravity holds the gases forming the atmosphere. Another reason is the core which has a magnetic effect and forms a magnetic layer which has some effect on the atmospheric gases and saves it from going away to the space by attracting the gases towards the pole where the gravity is the highest.
One theory about asteroids says that Jupiter's strong what prevented the asteroids from forming a planet?
gravity
Does the international dateline have gravity?
The international dateline has normal gravity; our time zone conventions have no effect on the gravity of the planet Earth.
The acceleration of gravity on the surface of a planet will effect a person's or object's what?
weight
Why scientists theorize that the asteroid belt did not form a planet?
scientists theorize that it was jupiters gravity that kept it from forming
Is there really evidence that there was a planet on the asteroid belt?
There certainly is enough material in the asteroid belt to form another planet, however the immense gravity of Jupiter prevented a planet from forming.
Does the size of a planet effect your throwing ability?
YES! the size of the planet does effect your throwing ability! If you get each planets' gravity number then you will notice that the smaller the planet the less gravity force/attraction it will have. If you go to Jupiter and throw a football the gravity will pull down on the football faster and make your throw much shorter than it would on Earth because Jupiter has a bigger gravity number then Earth.
Does the planet with the most moons get the strongest gravity?
In our solar system, at least, the planet with the greatest mass does happen to be the one with the most known moons. But I think the cause and effect work the other way. It's not the moons that give the planet strong gravity. It's the strong gravity of the planet that captures a bunch of moons.
