The force of gravity is greatest between two masses whose product is greatest,

and which are closest together.

You're already as close to the earth's total mass as you can get, and there's nothing

you can do to change the earth's mass. So the only way to increase the mutual force of

gravity between the earth and another body is to increase the mass of the secondary body.

In fewer words: Eat more. Get heavier.

How do you incerse the gravity?

Increasing gravity is not possible as it is a natural force determined by the mass of an object. Gravity can be simulated in various ways, such as using centrifugal force or creating environments with artificial gravity in science fiction settings, but these methods do not actually increase gravity itself.


How do you reduce gravity on an object?

The only way to do that is to physically take it away from the Earth. As long as the object remains on the Earth, you can apply additional forces to it, to combine in various ways with the force of gravity and make the object move as you want it to, but there's nothing you can do to change the force of gravity on it.


What are two ways you can increase gravity?

You cannot increase gravity, but you can increase the force of gravity on a piece of matter with mass by1. Making the piece of matter larger2. Making it more dense3. Moving it closer to the center of a separate piece of matter.


How can you Describe ways you can observe gravity in action in the natural world?

if you drop a pencil you just saw gravity in action. This happens because Earth has a bigger gravity force than the pencil, so instead of the Earth moving to the pencil, the pencil moves to the Earth!


Is weight a measure of earth's pull of gravity?

Weight is what we call the amount of the gravitational force between the Earth and an object on the surface of the Earth. It works both ways. Your weight on the Earth is also the Earth's weight on you.


What is gravitational force and what is gravity?

There is no difference. Gravity and gravitational force are simply two different ways of describing force by which bodies pull on each other relative to their size (gravity!).


What are some interesting facts about gravity?

-- There is a force of gravity between every two objects in the universe. No two objects can ever be so small or so far apart that the force of gravity between them is zero. There is a force of gravity between a hair on your head and a grain of sand on an asteroid in orbit around a star in the farthest galaxy. -- The force of gravity between two objects depends on the 'product' of their masses (one mass multiplied by the other mass), not on either one alone. -- The force of gravity always works both ways at the same time. You pull the earth with the same amount of force that the earth pulls you. Your weight on the earth is the same as the earth's weight on you.


Describe all the ways that one can increase or decrease the gravitational force between two objects?

The gravitational force between two objects can be increased by increasing the mass of the objects or decreasing the distance between them. It can be decreased by reducing the mass of the objects or increasing the distance between them.


Is there gravity between earth and the space shuttle as it orbits earth?

Yes, there is the force of gravity when the Space Shuttle is in space. The Earth's gravity is a force which continues throughout space, however diminishing as it travels further out (similar to the suns light traveling throughout space). A good example of the gravity's force in space would be the tool bag lost on a spacewalk which fell back to Earth. Also, the gravity in space seems much less due to the fact there is very little to no atmosphere weighing on the space craft (depending on altitude). On Earth atmosphere at sea level ways 14.7 pounds per square inch and gets lighter as you climb.


Who founded the earth gravity?

The force of Earth's gravity was not "founded" by any individual. Gravity is a natural force that exists as a result of the mass of the Earth and other celestial bodies, pulling objects towards their centers. Sir Isaac Newton's laws of motion and law of universal gravitation helped explain the behavior of gravity.


What 2 ways is the force of gravity related to?

mass and distance


If gravity increased then your weight will?

When gravity increases, weight also increases. Unlike mass, weight depends on gravity. The moon has 1/6 the gravity of the Earth, so if you want to lose weight instantly, you could theoretically stay on the moon. However, what many people want to lose is mass.
