It can affect people's weight and mass. Also if youdo skydiving, then gravity will pull you down much faster, but air resistance is much weaker.

===============================================

Another contributor stopped in to clean up after the first one:

-- Gravity is responsible for your weight, but has nothing to do with your mass.

-- You don't have to be a skydiver for gravity to pull you down. You only have to

slip on a banana peel, fall out of bed, or walk down the stairs.

-- Air resistance isn't all that weak. Gravity wants to keep increasing your falling speed,

but air resistance can completely take over so that your falling speed doesn't change

at all.

What are two things that affect how strong the force of gravity is?

Two things that affect the strength of gravity are the mass of the objects involved and the distance between them. Gravity decreases with distance and increases with mass, leading to stronger gravitational forces between more massive objects that are closer together.

What are the two things that affect the strength of the force of gravity?

The two things that affect the strength of the force of gravity are the masses of the objects and the distance between them. The force of gravity increases with the mass of the objects and decreases with the distance between them.

How does inertia affect gravity?

Inertia does not affect gravity, these are two entirely separate things, even though they both are produced by the same thing, which is mass. Mass creates both inertia and gravity, but inertia and gravity do not affect each other.
