Generally speaking, the bigger or more massive a planet it, the more gravity it has, since gravity and mass are related. the small planets such as Mars and Mercury have a weaker gravity, while the larger planets have a strong gravitational field.

What makes a planet have weak gravity?

Big planets has a strong gravity. In small planets it's opposite


Does earth have strong or weak gravity?

Because of Earth's size, and considering it as one of the smallest planets, it has a weak gravity compared to the OTHER planets. Most planets have greater gravity because of their size. Earth has a stronger gravity compared to mars, mercury, and venus.


Why do small planets have weak gravity?

Gravitational attraction is proportional to mass.


How is Pluto a dwarf planet?

Because it was so small. And it was made of rock and ice not like other planets. And because it is too small it has weak gravity and because of the weak gravity it can't clear the objects in it's neighborhood.


How many ring Venus's have?

Venus (and all the other four inside rocky planets) has no rings; its gravity is too weak.


Is Pluto Gravity Strong Or Weak?

Pluto's gravity is relatively weak compared to the gravity of larger planets like Earth. The gravitational pull on Pluto's surface is about 6% that of Earth's gravity. This means that a person who weighs 100 pounds on Earth would weigh only about 6 pounds on Pluto.


Where do the planets get gravity?

Planets have gravity because they have mass.


Do dwarf planets have gravity?

Yes, dwarf planets have gravity just like any other astronomical body. Gravity is a fundamental force that exists due to the mass of an object, so all objects with mass, including dwarf planets, have their own gravitational pull.


Why does earth have gravity and other planets don't?

The other planets do have gravity.


Can a dwarf planet be round?

Yes, dwarf planets can be round. Like regular planets, dwarf planets are large enough for their own gravity to pull them into a nearly spherical shape, making them round. Examples of round dwarf planets include Pluto and Eris.


Do the inner planets have gravity?

Yes. All planets have gravity. Earth is one of those inner planets.


Does the sun give planets gravity?

No. Planets have gravity as a result of their own mass.
