we would get three times heaver :)- weight = mass x gravity (9.8m/s/s) btw

What is the effect of the gravitational force between two planets when the distance is three times apart?

The gravitational force between two planets decreases with the square of the distance between them, according to Newton's law of universal gravitation. If the distance between the two planets is increased to three times their original distance, the gravitational force becomes one-ninth of what it was at the original distance. This means that as the distance increases, the gravitational attraction between the planets weakens significantly.


What are the 2 gravitational bodies that affects tide?

Well there are three (don't forget the Earth!) the other two are the Sun and the Moon.


Is it true that tides are created by the difference between the gravitational force at Earths surface and at Earths center?

Yes, that's basically what causes tides. ===================== And the moon. Lets not forget its role.


What could happen to an object in orbit without gravity pulling down?

Orbital mechanics are a direct result of the effect of gravitational force. Without gravitational force, no object would orbit any other - they all would follow their own independent straight line travel. Also, in reference to this question's inference that gravity pulls downward (i.e. towards the earth), remember that ALL objects, regardless of size, exert gravitational force. Obviously, the larger the object, the larger the gravitational force; and, the closer the object, the more force it exerts. So, in this case, remember that things near the Earth have at least three major gravitational forces acting on them: the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun. All three gravitational forces "pull" in different directions, and exert a different amount of force (based on the exact location of the orbiting object).


What is the three body problem?

The three-body problem is a classical problem in physics and astronomy that involves predicting the motion of three celestial bodies interacting with each other through gravitational forces. Unlike the two-body problem, which has a clear solution, the three-body problem is generally unsolvable in terms of simple equations, leading to complex, chaotic behavior. This complexity arises because the gravitational interactions cause the bodies to influence each other's trajectories in unpredictable ways. As a result, numerical methods and simulations are often used to study specific cases of the three-body problem.

What happens to your weight if the earth gravitational pull gets 3 times stronger?

Your weight becomes three times as greater.


Which three planets in your solar system have a gravitational pull about a tenth stronger than the gravity of the earth?

Uranus, Venus, and Planet X.


How does gravitational force effect a space traveler?

On launch, the gravitational force increases their body weight by about three or four times, and their blood tries to stay grounded, sending the body into chaos.


On what two factors does the strength of a gravitational force depend?

The strength of a gravitational force between two objects depends on their masses and the distance between them. The greater the masses of the objects and the shorter the distance between them, the stronger the gravitational force.


On Saturn how much would a ten year old weigh?

They would weigh 9/10 of what they weigh on Earth. Multiply the number of pounds they weigh by 0.9 and you will get their weight.


What cause the gravitational force between object A and object B to increase?

The gravitational force between object A and object B increases as the mass of either object increases. In other words, the greater the mass of either object, the stronger the gravitational force between them.


What is the force produced by gravity acting on mass?

The force produced by gravity acting on a mass is known as weight. Weight is calculated as the mass of an object multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity. This force is proportional to the mass of the object and the strength of the gravitational field.


What are the two factors that determine gravitational potential energy?

The two variables that determine gravitational potential energy are height above earths surface mass (also air resistance may come into play but in physics friction and air resistance are usually ignored and)


What happens to your weight if earth's gravity became three times stronger?

If the mass of the Earth became 3 times what it is today but the Earth remainedthe same size, then your weight would also become 3 times what you weigh today.
