The force of gravity is stronger between larger masses, and weaker

between smaller masses.

That's why there's more force between you and the Earth than there is

between you and a Bowling ball, for example.

Does gravity get bigger or smaller with bigger masses?

Gravity gets stronger with larger masses. The force of gravity is directly proportional to the mass of the objects involved, meaning that the larger the mass, the stronger the gravitational pull between the objects.


What does the force of gravity always have?

The force of gravity always has an attractive nature, meaning that it pulls objects with mass toward each other. This force is dependent on the masses of the objects and the distance between them, according to Newton's law of universal gravitation.


What makes smaller airplanes go faster than bigger airplanes?

There are four factors that are exerted on airplanes. Thrust, Drag, Gravity and lift. Lift must be higher then gravity to make a plane go up. Thrust be be stronger then drag to make a plane go faster. As a plane becomes larger, more drag is added to the plane. This requires more thrust to maintain the same speed. So, as a plane gets larger the amount of power an engine must produce goes up drastically. Small planes with the same horsepower or thrust ratings will alays be able to go faster.


If a car has bigger force but transfers the same amount of energy . what will be the distance travelled by the car?

The distance traveled by the car will be greater with a bigger force applied, as long as the same amount of energy is transferred. This is because a greater force can overcome more resistance and propel the car forward for a longer distance compared to a smaller force.


Are bigger batteries better than smaller ones?

Other things being equal - same material, mainly - a bigger battery will store more energy than a smaller battery. If the same amount of power is used, the bigger battery will last longer. Whether this is better or not depends on the specific needs - the bigger battery will also be heavier, and use up more space.

How does the gravity of the planets effect the mass?

the bigger the planet the more gravity it has because it needs to hold it self together so it has more gravity than smaller planets who require a small amount of gravity to hold themselves toghther


Is Pluto gravity smaller or bigger than earth?

What happens to the gravity on large and small planet?

Gravity depends largely on mass, the bigger the planet the greater the gravity should be


Would you have a different mass on the moon why why not?

No. Mass is a measure of the amount of "stuff" or matter a thing has. You wouldn't be smaller or bigger on the moon. You would, however, weigh less because weight is a function of gravity nand there is little gravity on the moon.


What captures most of the planets moons?

the gravitational pull of the gravity of the planet so in other words bigger planets more gravity, smaller planet less gravity. usually bigger planets have more moons

Is gravity on Saturn stronger than earths gravity?

Yes it does, because the Earth is smaller than Saturn it will have less gravity than Saturn and because Saturn is bigger it will have more gravity


How do the changes in mass and distance effect the force of gravity?

Bigger masses mean a bigger force of gravity. Bigger distances mean smaller forces. Mathematically, the force is directly proportional to the product of the masses, and inversely proportional to the square of the distance.


Is mass larger on bidder planets or smaller?

Mass does not change with gravity. Weight increases on BIGGER planets and decreases on smaller planets.


What happens if you go on another planet?

depends on the planet and on their force of gravity, on some you may grow bigger or smaller, jump really high or say firmly on the ground.
