That depends on how much mass the other object has, and how far it is away.
Earth and the moon.
The gravitational fields of both the Earth and Moon extend to infinity, but they reduce as 1 / distance-squared.
if the sun turned into a black hole we would be gone in seconds... it wouldn't matter Another answer: The Earth gravitational attraction would remain the same. Sun's gravitational attraction would also remain the same. Why? Because their mass would remain the same.
No, it is usually plate tectonics.
Gravitational attraction
The answer is gravitational attraction. It is the attractive force between all objects that have mass. It's between you and me, you and your PC, and between everything.
The gravitational attraction of an apple on Earth is approximately 1 Newton, which is equivalent to the weight of the apple. This force is a result of the gravitational pull between the apple and Earth.
The gravitational force (or attraction) between any two objects increases as the distance between them decreases. Thus, as an asteroid approaches Earth, the Earth's gravitational pull will increase as it gets nearer.
The mutual gravitational attraction between you and the earth.
The gravitational attraction between you and the Earth is called gravity. It is the force that keeps you from floating off into space and pulls you back down when you jump.
is called its weight.
Earth and the moon.
because of gravitational force of attraction between the earth and other planets
gravitational force
Gravitational force is the attraction between two masses. It can be explained by Force=(Mass1*Mass2)/Distance. Everything is attracted to the earth because the earth has such a large mass. So on a small scale it is just about impossible to create gravitational force.
The mutual force of gravitational attraction between the sun and the earth.
No. Mass is the quantity of actual stuff of which an object is composed.The force of gravitational attraction between the Earth and the object'smass is called the object's "weight" on Earth.
