How much is gravity on Earth compared to the moon?
Gravity on Earth is about 6 times stronger than on the moon. This means that objects weigh less on the moon compared to Earth due to its weaker gravitational pull.
Which is greater the moon's pull on earth or earths pull on the moon?
The moon is only strong enough to push and pull the tides in the ocean on earth. The earths pull is so strong it moves the entire moon in circles.
How is the moon kept in orbit?
The moon is kept in orbit around the Earth due to the force of gravity. The gravitational pull between the Earth and the moon keeps the moon moving in a curved path around the Earth, balancing the outward inertial force with the inward gravitational force.
How strong is the earths moons gravatational pull?
The gravitational pull of Earth's moon is about 1/6th that of Earth. This pull is what causes tides on Earth and keeps the moon in orbit around our planet. It also affects the Earth's rotation and the tilt of its axis.
Does the moon control the gravity?
Everything that has mass has gravity, even you. The Moon has its own gravitational pull as does the Earth.
What causes the moon to pull on the earths oceans making an oval shape?
The gravity of the moon
How does Earth has gravity?
the earths gravitational pull keeps the moon in orbit
Does the pull of gravity work on the moon?
yes. everything that has a mass has gravity, including urself. but on the moon the gravity is only 17% as strong as earths gravity
What makes moon orbits earth?
Gravity. The moon orbits the earth because the moon is stuck in earths gravational pull.
Does the earths gravity pull the moon more than the moon pulls the earth?
Yes.. Always gravity exerted by an object that has larger mass is more.
The rises and falls in the level of earths oceans caused mainly gravity or pull of the moon is?
Tides
How does gravity affect oceans?
Gravity can pull water in and out, causing tide like motions. The gravity of the moon and sun, for example pull on the earths oceans and cause high and low tides.
How much is gravity on Earth compared to the moon?
Gravity on Earth is about 6 times stronger than on the moon. This means that objects weigh less on the moon compared to Earth due to its weaker gravitational pull.
Why do objects weight less on the moon than on earth?
the moon has less gravity... because the moon is smaller and and its gravitational pull is MUCH lower than the earths
What is the gravity of the moon Io relative to earth's gravity?
The surface gravity on Io is very low compared to Earth, due to its low mass, around 0.183g or 18.3% of the Earths pull at the surface. this is just a little more than the surface gravity on our own moon, which is about 16.5% of earths pull.
Is gravity a push or a pull factor?
Gravity is a pull from the earths core. it is known as a "force"
Which place is Center of the Earth?
The centre of the earth is solid iron, however the centre of the earths gravitational pull changes, due to the movement of the moon, which has an effect on the earths gravity.
