Gravitational attraction is the force of gravity between two objects and it depends on the mass of both of them and the distance apart. So two objects must be specified, e.g. Mercury and the Sun, or Mercury and Alpha Centauri, etc.
However, we can compare the forces for any one particular object that is attracted at any particular place:
The gravitational force on the surface of Mercury is about 38% compared with Earth's.
The planet closest to the sun, Mercury, experiences the strongest gravitational pull from the sun due to its proximity.
Planet Earth.
The gravitational pull of the Sun
Gravitational pull is less for Mercury, Venus, Mars and Uranus. And th eother planets have higher gravitational pull.
The gravity of a planet like Mercury is directly proportional to its mass. This means that as the mass of Mercury increases, so does its gravity. Gravity is the force of attraction between two masses, and the larger the mass of an object, the stronger its gravitational pull.
no........ the weight is determined by the gravitational pull on any object gravitational pull of different planet is different. therefore, the weight changes
I think its because of its weak gravitational pull.
You would weigh more on Saturn compared to Mercury because Saturn is a much larger planet with a stronger gravitational pull. Mercury is a smaller planet with a weaker gravitational pull, so you would weigh less on Mercury.
Because the gravitational pull of the planet isn't strong enough to hold any gasses.
well depends what planet you are on the basic formulae is as follows weight = mass X gravitational field (gravitational pull) on each planet so depending on what planet you wish to know ill put int the answer . Mercury gravitational pull is 3.7 so its 3.7kg Venus gravitational pull is 8.8 so its 8.8kg Earth gravitational pull is 9.8 so its 9.8kg Mars gravitational pull is 3.7 so its 3.7kg Jupiter gravitational pull is 23.2 so its 23.2kg Saturn gravitational pull is 9.0 so its 9kg Uranus gravitational pull is 8.7 so its 8.7kg Neptune gravitational pull is 11.1 so its 11.1kg Pluto gravitational pull is 0.6 600g
Mercury has the greatest attraction to the Sun due to its proximity and mass. Being the closest planet to the Sun, the gravitational force between Mercury and the Sun is stronger than any other planet in our solar system.
The planet closest to the sun, Mercury, experiences the strongest gravitational pull from the sun due to its proximity.
All of them.
The relative strength of its gravitational pull is directly proportional to the planet's mass.
YES
Planet Earth.
