True
The moon has less mass than does Mars and therefore has less gravity at its surface.
The gravity on Earth is stronger than the gravity on Mercury.
No. Surface gravity on Mars is 37.6% (about 3/8) what it is on Earth.
The specific gravity of a substance depends on the acceleration due to gravity. Since the gravity is lower on the moon than on Earth, the specific gravity of mercury will be different between the two. On the moon, the weight of mercury would be less than on Earth due to the weaker gravitational pull, causing its specific gravity to be different.
Mars is approximately 1/2 the diameter of Earth and since it is less massive than Earth, it has only 38% of Earth's gravity.
False. The presence of gravity does not directly affect the amount of gas in an atmosphere. Factors such as temperature, pressure, and chemical reactions play a larger role in determining the composition and amount of gas in a given atmosphere.
That is true! Weight is how much gravity is pulling on an object. For example, on the moon, an object will weigh about 6 times less than it does on Earth. Mass, on the other hand, stays the same ALL THE TIME, no matter where you are.
Well sometimes it is and sometimes it isn't. That old saying is not nessary true. Because there are plenty of planets in the universe that are the same size as earth but have less gravity than earth.
No. The gravity on Venus is only slightly less than it is on Earth. Venus has an atmosphere about 90 times denser than Earth's.
No. The gravity on Mars is about 38% that on Earth. So Mars has about 62 percent less gravity.
Mars has less gravity.
The moon has less mass than does Mars and therefore has less gravity at its surface.
There is gravity on the moon. It is about on sixth what it is on Earth. This is because the moon has less mass than Earth does.
The gravity on Earth is stronger than the gravity on Mercury.
The gravity on Mars is about 38% of the gravity on Earth. This means that objects weigh less on Mars compared to Earth.
Yes. The effects of gravety on Mars are less than on Earth. Mars has 37.6% of Earth's gravity.
Since the Moon's gravity is 1/6 that of Earth, the Moon's gravity is 5/6 less than that of Earth.
