due to the phrasing and placement of your question it could have several possible answers because you use "high" and "your earth." the phrasing uses too many variables with terms that do not really exist also because of gravity's nature you can not use terms like "high" because they do not exist and are simply figments of your improper imagination. please rephrase your question and i will consider answering it.

Sincerely,

The acceleration from Earths gravity at the surface is 9.80665 m/s². This is the average gravitational pull of Earths gravity. However, the local gravity is not always the same. It depends on latetude, altitude and local topography and geology.

Latetude Because of centrifugal force the gravitation force at the equater is slightly less than at the poles. It ranges from 9.789 m/s² at the equator to 9.832 m/s² at the pole.

Altitude The higher u are also effects the gravity. Someone on the top of Everest is lighter by a little over 0.28%. This is because they are further from center of mass. In fact an astronaut in the space shuttle some 400 km up still is subjected to about 90% earth gravity. The only reason they appear weightless is because the astonaut and the shuttle are in free fall at the same speed. Local topography and geology.

Things such as mountains and dense rock also cause fluctuations in the gravitational field.

The mass of the Earth is in the neighborhood of 5,972,190,000,000,000,000,000,000 kilograms (rounded).

It's not clear what you mean by "gravity mass".

Why is the specific gravity of mercury on the moon not the same as its specific gravity on earth?

The gravity at the surface of Mercury is less than the gravity at the surface of the Earth because Mercury has less mass than Earth does.


What is copper specific gravity?

Gravity is constant. It does not change based on the element, only the relative distance from the a specific body can reduce the effect of gravity (moving away from the earth lessens its gravitational pull on an object).


What is the specific gravity of garnet?

Specific gravity of corundum is between 3.95-4.01.


Would the specific gravity of mercury be the same on the moon where gravity is one sixth of that on the earth?

Specific gravity (Sg) is a value that relates substance x (in this case mercury) to that of water. Notice that Sg is unit-less, thus its a ratio value, and constant. So yes, specific gravity of any substance is the same everywhere, be it earth, the moon, or Pluto. note: Obviously gravity is different on the moon, as you mentioned about 1/6th that of earth. Finding a force of a certain substance on the moon is found by multiplying the density of water by the specific weight of the substance, multiplied by the gravitational pull. Thus, it is not nessicary to change the specific gravity of the substance.


What is the difference between specific gravity and gravity?

Specific gravity is the ratio of a substance's density to that of a standard, usually water. Gravity is a force of attraction between two bodies. We usually think of the gravitational force of the earth as the force of attraction for bodies on the surface of the earth, but all objects exert a tiny attraction for each other.

How does the moon crontrol gravity on earth?

No. The earth has its own gravity. The lunar gravity causes tides on earth, but does not control earth's gravity.
