The amout of gravity is directly related to the mass of the body, since the earth has more mass it also has more gravity than the moon just like Jupiter has more mass than earth so it has more gravity.

How does earth get gravity?

All objects have gravity. The strength of that gravity is directly proportional to the object's mass. For most objects, their gravity is too weak for us to notice, but Earth has an enormous amount of mass and so has fairly strong gravity.


Where is the most amount of gravity at sea level or the center of the earth?

What is the amount of gravity of the moon?

The gravity of the moon is 1/6 that of the earth.


How does the amount of gravity change between Earth and Jupiter?

Since Jupiter is further than the moon, there is not as much gravity as the Earth and moon.


Earths magnetic field is not the cause of gravity?

No. Those are two quite different forces. The Earth's gravity is caused by the amount of mass Earth has.No. Those are two quite different forces.

What is the weight in newtons of a 5kg mass?

That depends on the amount of gravity, of course. Weight = mass x gravity. Near the Earth's surface, the value for gravity is approximately 9.8 (meters per square seconds).That depends on the amount of gravity, of course. Weight = mass x gravity.

If there is no gravity on the moon why can an astronaut jump up and down as seen in the space shots?

There is gravity on the moon. There is less gravity on the moon than there is on earth, because the moon is smaller than earth. Because the Earth has the mass it has, it has the gravity it has. Because the moon has a lot less mass than the Earth its gravity is about 1/6 the amount of the Earth's gravity.


Does Uranus have the most gravity?

no, it's only 86% of the gravity on Earth


Where is there no gravity other than the moon?

There is gravity on the moon but not as much as on Earth. This is because the amount of gravity depends on the mass of the object creating the gravity and the moon is much smaller and has much lower mass than the Earth. If you are far enough away from the Earth (and moon) their will be a point where there is no noticeable gravity.


What causes an object to weigh more on earth than the moon?

What is the Earth's amount of gravity?

The acceleration of gravity on or near the Earth's surface is 9.8 meters (32.1 feet) per second per second.


Which of the 4 terrestrial planets has the most gravity?

Earth is the largest and most massive of the four inner or terrestrial planets. Its surface gravity is therefore the highest of the four.
