What else can I help you with?
The measure of how hard gravity pulls on an object is what?
This measurement is called weight. Weight is measured in Newtons (N). This is not the weight you refer to in general everyday life, what you are actually referring to is mass. Weight is the amount of force required to support an object against gravity.
Is a measure of how hard gravity is pulling on an objects?
Weight is a measure of how strongly gravity is pulling on an object. It is the force exerted by gravity on an object's mass.
What is the function of gravity?
Pulls things to the ground.Drop an apple two yards above your head. Observe how you feel. The apple hit you pretty hard didn't it?! That's gravity. In space the apple would just float around and not come straight at you.
How hard is gravity pulling you down?
In my case, the magnitude of the force is 195 pounds. In return, I am also pulling the Earth up toward me with a force of 195 pounds.
Are mass and weight interchangeable terms?
No, mass and weight are not interchangeable terms. Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass. Mass is constant regardless of location, while weight can vary depending on the strength of the gravitational pull.

True or false mass is a measure of how hard gravity is pulling on an object?
True

Why are we stuck on the earth instead of the sun that is more massive?
The Earth is big enough to make its own gravity, so we get stuck to it when we are born. The Sun's gravity pulls on the Earth, but Earth is in a stable orbit, so it goes around the sun instead of falling into it. Neither the Earth's gravity or the Sun's gravity pulls on us so hard that we can't move or do normal things. The Moon's gravity also pulls on the Earth, but it is less strong, so it doesn't pull us up... it only creates the tides, affecting the water.
Can you poop upside down?
No, it is not physically possible to poop upside down as gravity pulls waste downward in the digestive system.
How hard is gravity pulling you down?
In my case, the magnitude of the force is 195 pounds. In return, I am also pulling the Earth up toward me with a force of 195 pounds.
How much gravity do normal objects have?
It's proportional to their weight ... which shows how hard the object is pulling the Earth towards itself. (As well as how hard the Earth is pulling - remember, it takes two objects to make a gravity field.)
Are mass and weight interchangeable terms?
No, mass and weight are not interchangeable terms. Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass. Mass is constant regardless of location, while weight can vary depending on the strength of the gravitational pull.
If something is harder does it mean its heavier?
Not necessarily. The hardness of an object refers to its resistance to scratching or deformation, while the weight refers to the force of gravity acting on the object. An object can be hard but lightweight, or soft but heavy.
Parallax would be harder to measure if?
A parallax is hard to measure if it is very small - and this happens when the corresponding object is very far away.
The difference of mass and weight?
1) Mass is a measurement of the amount of matter something contains, while Weight is the measurement of the pull of gravity on an object.2) Mass is measured by using a balance comparing a known amount of matter to an unknown amount of matter. Weight is measured on a scale.3) The Mass of an object doesn't change when an object's location changes. Weight, on the other hand does change with location.From [related links]
