If you fall down, that's gravity. If you stand up and stand on your feet (as opposed to floating through space), that's gravity.

How do you find gravitational mass?

Gravitational mass can be determined by measuring the weight of an object in a gravitational field. The weight of an object is equal to the gravitational force acting on it, which can be calculated using the equation W = mg, where W is the weight, m is the mass, and g is the acceleration due to gravity. By rearranging the equation, you can solve for mass: m = W/g.


How to find the gravitational constant?

The gravitational constant, denoted as G, can be found through experiments involving the measurement of the gravitational force between two objects with known masses and distances. One common method is to use a torsion balance, which measures the twisting of a wire due to the gravitational attraction between two masses. By analyzing the data collected from these experiments, scientists can determine the value of the gravitational constant.


How do you find the depth in a hydrostatic pressure equation?

To find the depth in a hydrostatic pressure equation, you can use the formula: pressure = density of fluid x gravitational acceleration x depth of fluid. Rearrange the equation to solve for depth: depth = pressure / (density of fluid x gravitational acceleration).


How can one determine how to find escape velocity in a given scenario?

To find escape velocity in a given scenario, you can use the formula: escape velocity square root of (2 gravitational constant mass of the planet / radius of the planet). This formula takes into account the gravitational pull of the planet and the mass and radius of the planet. By plugging in these values, you can calculate the escape velocity needed to leave the planet's gravitational pull.


Is gravitational potential energy is the same gravitational force?

No. Gravitational force is the pull an object experience from gravity. Gravitational energy is the energy an object has from its position in a gravitational field. An object moving up in a gravitational field gains gravitational energy.

How do you find the weight of an object on earth?

You could weigh it against other objects. If it is not on the surface, multiply its mass by the acceleration of gravity (at that distance) to find its gravitational potential in newtons.
