When an object accelerates to close the speed of light does its mass actually change or just its inertia if its mass increases then its gravitational force on objects should increase is this so?

The question hints at an interesting tid-bit that arises in Physics, particularly in regard to Relativity: The mass of an object figures in to any calculation of its inertia, and also in to any calculation of the gravitational force between it and any other object. The question is raised as to whether the object's inertial mass and its gravitational mass are equal, and according to all the experimental and observational evidence so far, the answer is yes, they're equal, and we only have to talk about the object's 'mass', without making the distinction. Assuming that that's true, then it's the object's 'mass' that increases with its speed, and the mutual force of gravitational attraction between it and other objects changes proportionately.


The more mass an object has?

The moe mass and the closer the object, the greater the Gravitational Potential E= -GmM/r energy and Force F=GmM/r^2.


Is it true mass is a mesure of force that an object has?

No.


Mass and air resistance affect the gravitational attraction between objects true or false?

This is false. The answer is that mass and distance affect the gravitational attraction between objects. Air resistance has no effect on this.


Is mass the same as weight True or false?

It is not the same. Read the Wikipedia article on "mass versus weight" for a detailed discussion.

Is it true that scientists have detected mass less particles called gravitational that are responsible for the gravitational force?

No. Gravitons have been hypothesized, but not directly detected.


Is it true that moon pulls on the earth with one-sixth the force that the earth exerts on the moon?

No. Gravitational force is present between every two mass bodies, and the force on each body is the same.

Only the earth exerts gravitional force on all object is it true?

Anything with mass include you and me do exert gravitational force but the earth is massive so it exert more force than any of any small object including us on earth. The gravitational force is done between two mass in following general gravitational law by Newton. F = G.M1m2/R2 We sum up G.M1/R2 as gravity = 9.81 m/s2 for M1 is earth and R = earth radius Between 2 man with m1 and m2 respectively, gravitational force between these two man is at F = G.m1m2/L2 where L = distance between center of mass (you and me for instance). Gravitational force is small compare to earth's gravitational force but it does exist.


The more mass an object has?

The moe mass and the closer the object, the greater the Gravitational Potential E= -GmM/r energy and Force F=GmM/r^2.


How can you say that gravitational force is a field force?

It is true that the force of gravity can be described as a force field. Any object having mass will create a gravitational attraction in all directions, with decreasing intensity as the distance from the object increases. Fields are like that. It is different from a force that results from being hit by a baseball, which is exerted only at a specific location.


Is it true The force of gravity on an object is known as its mass.?

No. You can think of 'mass' as the amount of material in an object.The strength of the gravitational forces between two objects depends onthe masses of both objects.


Is it true that tides are created by the difference between the gravitational force at Earths surface and at Earths center?

Yes, that's basically what causes tides. ===================== And the moon. Lets not forget its role.


True or false the more mass a planet has the more its gravitational pull to another planet?

True


True or false The Moon orbits Earth and not the Sun because the Sun doesn't exert a gravitational force on the Moon?

False. The sun does exert a gravitational force on the moon.


Is it true mass is a mesure of force that an object has?

No.


Why are objects on Earth's attracted to the Earth but not each other?

This is technically not true. All forms of mass exert gravitational attraction on one another. However, since the Earth is billions of times more massive than most objects, the gravitational force of the Earth is commonly seen. The gravitational force between a stapler and a computer monitor is not large enough to make the two objects fly across a room to get to one another.
