The mass of an object in a gravitational field is called the object's "mass".
The presence or absence of a gravitational field has no effect on the mass.

What is the law gravitional force?

All objects have gravity and gravity depends on the mass of an object and the distance between the object.


What is the gravitional field strength of the earth at its surface?

The gravitational field strength of a planet multiplied by an objects mass gives us the weight of that object, and that the gravitational field strength, g of Earth is equal to the acceleration of free fall at its surface, 9.81ms − 2.


The amount of matter in an object is called what?

The amount of matter in an object is the fundamental property of the object. This is matter to weight.


The amount of matter in a object is called what?

The amount of matter in an object is called mass.


What happen to the gravitional force when two objects mass dobles and the distance between objects double?

If you double the mass of the first object, double the mass of the second object, and double the distance between them, the gravitational forces between them are exactly the same as before all the doubling began.


What will happen to the gravitational field if the mass of an object increase?

If the mass of an object increases, its gravitational field will become stronger. This is because the strength of the gravitational field is directly proportional to the mass of the object. The increased mass will result in a greater gravitational force exerted by the object on other objects around it.


Sir Isaac Newton realized in studing gravitional force that two things were always true about the amount of gravitional force an object has and the effect it has on nearby objects What did he realize?

Gravity is proportional to mass and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two bodies.


What is the measure of an object's mass and velocity called?

The measure of an object's mass is called mass, and the measure of its velocity is called velocity.


What is the definition of gravitional potential energy?

Gravitational potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its height above the ground in a gravitational field. It is dependent on the object's mass, the acceleration due to gravity, and the height it is lifted to.


What is mass of an object?
