The Gravitational Pull Tries to Pull it up But it is a machine It is not like a human.

∙ 14y agothe rovers have weights on them and also they have wheels which kind of, like, dig into the soil.

What two characteristics affect gravity?
The answer is that the two characteristics that affect gravity are mass and newtons. There is less gravity on the moon than on the earth. A space suit weighs 180 pounds on earth but on the moon it weighed way less than it was when it was on earth.
Why is there less gravity at the top of a mountain?
== == All bodies in space warp space to one degree or another depending on their size and composition....their gravity is directly proportional to the center of their mass ...in other words the closer to its core the stronger the gravity ...conversly the further the weaker (a mountain)
What do you mean by gravity?
If you mean what is gravity then it's the characteristic of space that causes a pair of forces between you and center of a planet, for example earth. this is what causes how much you weigh, which is also why you weigh less on the moon.
Is this question true or false when there is less gravity there is less gas?
When there is less gravity, there is less gas is this true or false
What did he do with the gravity?
Gravity is the resulting force created, as infinitely smaller and smaller masses orbit larger masses in space, which allows matter to become compacted into smaller and more dense proximity, and at the same time, creating a relative void in space, which causes the less massive of two bodies in space, to continually fall toward the more massive body in space.
Why do crumbs fall down to the ground on earth and not in space?
the forces of gravity pull the crumbs towards the earths core but in space the gravity is less so the pull force is not as great as the earths pull
Why is you weight less on high ground?
You are farther from Earth, so there is less gravity. Usually this effect should be quite insignificant. But it maybe significant if you are an astronaut going into space.
Are astronauts weight less in space?
Yes weight changes due to gravity and mass is constant in terms of gravity. There is less gravity in space than the earth so they would weigh less but their mass would be the same. They have less gravity pulling on them, so yes. Unless they have artificial gravity creators in or on the space ship that I don't know about.
Why do astronauts not weigh less in space?
they do-there is no gravity
Does space have more or less gravity than earth?
Space has no gravity. Gravity needs a mass to exist, and it is relative to other neighbouring masses.
Why is you weight less on the moon if your mass does not change?
Your weight is less on the moon b/c you have less gravity that pushes down on you in space--and in space there is no gravity,its a big vacuum and your mass is whats inside you.
Does your weight change if you take a spaceship into space?
Yes, the force of gravity is less in space, so your weight is less too.
Do you weigh more or less at the centre of earth?
you wight less because of the gravity in space
Would a bowling ball weigh more or less out in space than in does here?
Less No gravity
Why do you weight less in space?
Here on earth, gravity pulls us down, so the power that pulls us back makes our weight. In space you don't have gravity so nothing will pull us down. You don't weight less in space, you weight nothing in space! That's why we have "mass"
Why is there gravity on earth but almost none in space?
On Earth, gravity comes from the planet. The farther you go into space and away from Earth, the less gravity there is. Until you get near an large object, like a star, or a planet, or a moon, or a black hole. Then you will feel the pull of gravity again.
Why would their bones weaken in space?
Because, we don't feel it because we were born with it but thousands of units of force are beating on our heads through gravity and in space since that gravity is not present it takes less force from your muscles to move around
