What is the gravity of the earth is of moons gravity?
The gravity on earth is 9.8m/s^2 I believe the gravity on the moon is 1.6m/s^2
What does the moons gravity and earths gravity have in common?
Gravity on the moon has exactly the same characteristics and behavior as it has on Earth and everywhere else. It causes a pair of forces between any two objects, that are proportional to the product...
How does the gravity of the moon compare to the gravity of earth?
The earth's gravity is approximately 9.8m/s^2 The gravity on the moon is I believe 1.6m/s^2 So when you are on the moon, you are about 6 times lighter. Hope this helps!
