Objects masses would not change, but the pull of gravity on an object from another object when the first is inside the other is effectively zero when the inside is at the center of mass of the outer.

If the Earth were a thick walled but hollow sphere, objects would stick (weakly) to the inside surface as well as the outer.

When two objects of unequal mass orbit each other where is the center of mass?

The center of mass is closer to the more massive object. It is the point at which the two objects orbit each other as if they were one system. The location of the center of mass is influenced by the masses and distances of the objects.


If two objects become closer together is the gravitational attraction between them decreased?

No, it is increased. If the separation is halved, the attraction is quadrupled.


What happens at a black hole?

When an object enters a black hole, it starts being stretched. As it moves closer and closer to the center of the black hole, the gravitational pull on the part of the object that is closer to the center becomes more powerful than the gravitation pull on the part of the object that is farther away from the center. The objects keeps on getting stretched until it reaches the center of the black hole. We don't yet know what happens at that point.


You and a friend are playing on a see saw What if your friend is 30 pounds heavier than you are Which one of you should be closer to the center of the plank to balance the see saw. Why?

Wow, you failed physics, didn't you. The heavier person would sit closer to the center so the lighter person would have more leverage


What are the 3 conditions that make an object stable?

Low center of gravity: Objects are more stable when their center of gravity is closer to the base of support. Wide base of support: Objects are more stable when they have a wider base to distribute weight and resist tipping over. Symmetry: Objects with symmetrical shapes are typically more stable than asymmetrical objects.


What describes Earth's gravity?

Earth's gravity is a force that pulls objects towards its center. It gives weight to objects and keeps the Moon in orbit around the Earth. The strength of Earth's gravity decreases with distance from its center.

When a large objectsvmove closer together the force of gravity becomes?

Stronger, as the gravitational force between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. By moving closer together, the distance between the objects decreases, increasing the gravitational force between them.


Why do objects that are underwater look closer then they actually are?

Objects underwater appear closer than they actually are due to the refraction of light. Light bends as it passes from water to air, making objects underwater appear closer to the surface than they really are.


1 In what direction do the gravitational forces act?

Gravitational forces are attractive only. They act on a line from the center of mass of one object, to the center of mass of another object, and work to bring the two objects closer together.
