On the surface of the planet it causes objects to fall with an approximate acceleration of 9.8 meters per second per second. As you fly away from Earth, its gravitational pull decreases with the square of distance. As you dig down into Earth's core, its gravitational pull decreases linearly with proximity to the center of mass. At the exact center of Earth, there is no gravity. [But there is an enormous amount of pressure.]

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.


Does the moon's gravity affect the earth's gravity?

The effects would only combine for an object outside the Earth-Moon system (such as an asteroid). Otherwise, objects near the Earth and Moon will experience gravitational effects from both. The Earth's gravity holds the Moon in its orbit, and the Moon's gravity affects the Earth, notably causing the ocean tides.


What are the effects of leaving earth?

Leaving Earth can have physical effects on the body due to changes in gravity and radiation exposure. It can also have psychological effects such as feelings of isolation and homesickness. Additionally, leaving Earth can have social effects as individuals adapt to new environments and interactions with others.


What is the gravity on Mars compared to earth?

The gravity of Earth is 2.6 times that of Mars.Mars's gravity is 38% of Earth's gravity.


How in what ways do the Moon's gravity affects the earth?

The Moon's gravity causes tides on Earth by pulling the water towards it, creating high and low tide cycles. The Moon's gravity also stabilizes Earth's rotation, preventing it from wobbling excessively. Additionally, the Moon's gravity may influence the Earth's climate and even play a role in geological activities like earthquakes.

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


How do you loose the gravitational force from body to earth?

Develop an anti-gravity device. The further away you are the less gravity effects you.


What force causes the earth's water to shift and create tides?

Primarily, the effects of gravity between the earth and the moon.


What are some effects of Earth's gravity?

object to fall with an approximate acceleration of 9.8 seconds.


How strong is the sun gravity?

Gravity causes force that pulls every two masses together. It's the force of gravity between the sun and earth that keeps the earth in orbit around the sun. Same goes for the other planets. The force of gravity is also what holds you on the earth. Gravity is everywhere, and you see the effects wherever there are two masses.
