The earth's mass has no effect on its orbit.
An astronaut on a "space walk" hovering over the space shuttle's cargo bay is in the
same earth-orbit as the shuttle itself is, although his mass is much less than the shuttle's
mass. At the same time, the shuttle and the astronaut are both in the same solar orbit
as the earth is, although each of them has quite a bit less mass than the earth has.
What else can I help you with?
A satellite is 200 miles above the earth It has a mass of 150 kg If the mass of the satellite were tripled?
You don't really have a question here. If the satellite is in orbit, the mass is essentially irrelevant; it wouldn't change the speed of the orbit or the altitude. A larger satellite mass WOULD HAVE required more fuel and more energy to LAUNCH it, but once in orbit, it will stay there. The only exception would be an exceptionally large, light satellite. There is still some minuscule traces of atmosphere at 200 miles, and a large, light satellite would be slowed by air friction much more than a small dense satellite would. This is what caused the "ECHO" satellite - essentially a silvered mylar balloon inflated in orbit as a primitive reflector comsat - to deorbit.

Does the mass of an astronaut change when he or she is visiting the international space station?
The force of gravity decreases with the distance between bodies, but it is still about 90% of the sea level value in high Earth orbit. There zero gravity exists because of the "free fall" of the orbit. At some point several thousand miles from Earth, the attraction from the Earth or the Moon does become very small, creating virtual weightlessness.Gravity is inversely proportional to the distance from the center of mass, which is why on the Earth's surface the effect of the Sun's gravity (which is much greater) is negligible compared to that of the Earth.
Is mass effect on ps2?
I don't think the PS2 can handle the graphics of the game~ So, No.
What would happen if the inertia of the earth was increased without he sun's gravity increasing?
Inertia is measured by an object's mass. The Earth would still go around in the same orbit, because the orbit does not depend on the mass of a planet. "Inertia" is sometimes used to mean "momentum". That's mass times velocity. If the Earth's velocity increased then it would move further from the Sun. <<>> The point is that "inertia" is a nonscienific word that is used to describe different things by different people and it's best to use "mass" or "momentum" depending on what is meant.
Does earths mass determine its location in the solar system?
No. A planet's mass does not determine the position of its orbit.
Where is most of the mass in the solar system and what effect does this have?
Most of the mass of the solar system is in the sun. As a consequence all objects in the solar system orbit the sun.
Does the mass effect the velocity of an object in orbit?
No, the mass of an object does not affect its velocity in orbit. The velocity of an object in orbit is determined by the balance between the gravitational pull of the object it is orbiting and the centripetal force required to maintain that orbit. This relationship is described by the laws of physics and is independent of the object's mass.
How does the mass of jupiter affect the size of its orbit?
The mass of Jupiter affects the size of its orbit through gravitational forces. The greater the mass of Jupiter, the stronger its gravitational pull, which can influence the orbit of other celestial bodies nearby, including its own moons. This can cause these objects to orbit further away or closer to Jupiter depending on its mass.
As the Sun loses its mass will the Earth's orbit increase due to the lesser effect of the Sun's gravitational pull?
Yes, a tiny bit. The Sun is losing mass by turning it into energy, and also by losing particles in the solar wind. However, the amount of mass lost is so small compared to the total mass of the Sun, that the difference in gravity isn't even measurable.
How big planets are from smallest to biggest?
Mercury's mass = 0.055 x Earths, Volume = 0.056 x Earths Mars' mass = 0.1075 x Earths, Volume = 0.151 x Earths Venus' mass = 0.815 x Earths, Volume = 0.857 x Earths (Earth) mass = 1 x Earths, Volume = 1 x Earths Uranus' mass = 14.536 x Earths, Volume = 63.086 x Earths Neptune's mass = 17.147 x Earths, Volume = 57.74 x Earths Saturn's mass = 95.152 x Earths, Volume = 763.59 x Earths Jupiter's mass = 317.8 x Earths, Volume = 1321.3 x Earths
How much of earths mass made up by the core?
The core is 33% of the Earths mass
Is the radius of the earth's orbit reduced by the sun's loss of mass through nuclear fission?
The decrease in the Sun's mass due to nuclear fusion does not significantly affect the radius of Earth's orbit. The decrease in mass is very small compared to the Sun's total mass, so the effect on Earth's orbit is negligible. The main factors affecting Earth's orbit are gravitational interactions with other planets and the Sun's mass distribution.
What is the mass of a spacecraft when it is in orbit around the moon?
It has the same mass as when it is here on earth. The mass of an object do not change when it is in space, or in orbit.
What are the masses of all the planets in the solar system?
Mercury's mass = 3.30 x 1023kg or 0.055 x Earths Venus' mass = 4.87 x 1024kg or 0.815 x Earths (Earth) mass = 5.97 x 1024kg or 1 x Earths Mars' mass = 6.42 x 1023kg or 0.1075 x Earths Jupiter's mass = 1.90 x 1027kg or 317.8 x Earths Saturn's mass = 5.69 x 1026kg or 95.152 x Earths Uranus' mass = 8.68 x 1025kg or 14.536 x Earths Neptune's mass = 1.02 x 1026kg or 17.147 x Earths
The layer of rock that comprimises 67 of earths mass?
the layer of rock that comprises 67% of earths mass
Does the earths rotation cause the sun to remain in orbit?
No. Earth orbits the sun, not the other way around. Earth's orbit depends on the mass of the sun, not Earth's rotation. Earth's rotation does, however, give the appearance that celestial objects revolve around it.
