The mass of the object the force is acting on, and the gravitational acceleration where the force is acting. F = m*g, where F is the gravitational force, m is the mass of the object and g is the gravitational acceleration (on Earth it is about 9.81ms-2)

What measure describes the amount of gravitational force of an object?

The measure that describes the amount of gravitational force of an object is its mass. Mass is a fundamental property of matter that determines the amount of gravitational force it exerts on other objects. The greater the mass of an object, the stronger its gravitational force.


What is the relationship between mass and gravitity?

The size of the gravitational force between two masses is directly proportional to the product of their masses.


What keeps the planets and other objects in the solar system in orbit around the sun?

The gravitational force between the sun and the planets keeps them in orbit. This force acts as a centripetal force that continually pulls the planets towards the sun, keeping them in a stable orbit. The balance between the planet's velocity and the gravitational force determines the shape and size of their orbits.


What determines the size of a frictional force?

The size of a frictional force is determined by the roughness of the surfaces in contact and the normal force pushing them together. The frictional force opposes the motion of the objects and increases with the weight of the objects in contact.


What is The area where objects feel a gravitational force called?

The area where objects feel a gravitational force is called a gravitational field. This field is created by the presence of mass in space and determines the strength and direction of the force experienced by objects within it.


If two objects have the same mass what determines the strength of the of the gravitational force between them?

The gravitational force between two objects depends on the product of their masses and the distance between them.And the forces on both are equal. Regardless of their individual masses.
