What does gravatational pull do?
Gravitational pull is the force with which an object attracts another object towards it. It is responsible for keeping planets in orbit around the sun, as well as objects on Earth held down to the ground. Gravity also determines the weight of an object based on the mass of the two objects and the distance between them.
What causes an object to have a gravitational pull?
An object has a gravitational pull due to its mass. Gravitational force is a fundamental force of nature that arises from the mass of an object pulling other objects towards it. The greater the mass of an object, the stronger its gravitational pull.
How does the mass of an object affect its gravity?
The mass of an object directly affects its gravity. The greater the mass of an object, the stronger its gravitational pull. This means objects with larger mass will attract other objects with more force than objects with less mass.
The weight of an object varies with the?
either speed of the object or the pull of gravity?
What is the path an object around another object?
An orbit, which is an ellipse.
What force is causes an object to orbit another object in space?
Gravitational pull
What attracks every object in the universe toward another object?
Suns are the main reason. The sun has so much gravitational pull it attracks evrything.
How does the density of an object effect its gravitational pull on other objects example when a star's density increases its gravitational pull increases on other objects?
Mass, not density, and the closeness of objects, affects an object's gravitational pull. Density is not dependent on an object's size, but mass is. The more massive an object, and/or the closer an object is to another, the greater its gravitational pull.
Does Neptune have a gravitational pull on Mercury?
Yes, every object in the universe has a gravitational pull on every other object. However, Neptune is so much smaller than the Sun, and so much farther away, that Neptune's gravitational pull on Mercury will be unmeasurably small.
What determine the gravitational pull of a object?
An object's gravitational pull is determined by the object's mass.
The amount of gravitational pull an object exerts depends on what?
the grvitational pull of an object depents on its mass and density for power.
What is gravitational pull on an object?
The weight on an object is the gravitaional pull.
Is the moon too small to have a gravitational pull on another object?
No, the moon's gravitational pull on the earth is the dominate cause of tides in the oceans. When the Apollo moon missions were going on, the moon's gravity both kept the command module in orbit and the lander and astronauts on its surface. Nothing is too small to have a gravitational pull on another object.
What is the term for the pull of gravity on an object?
gravitational pull
How would you give an object gravitational pull?
All obects have a gravitational pull. The larger it is, the stronger the pull.
What does an object have to have for weight to act on it?
An object must have mass for there to be weight. There also must be another mass (such as Earth) that exerts a gravitational pull on the object for there to be weight.
What is the gravitational pull on an object?
That is also known as the object's WEIGHT.
