SOLAR SYSTEM

Detailed explanation-1: -The gravitational force of the earth on an object decreases as the object moves farther from the earth. If the earth were its present volume but more massive, we would weigh more.

Detailed explanation-2: -Since the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of both interacting objects, more massive objects will attract each other with a greater gravitational force. So as the mass of either object increases, the force of gravitational attraction between them also increases.

Detailed explanation-3: -From this analysis, we see that the weight force F is directly proportional to the mass M of the earth. This means that an increase in the mass of the earth results in an increase in your weight.

Detailed explanation-4: -Volume increases as a cube and surface area as a square, so even a slightly bigger planet would have much stronger gravity. Currently there are 3605 confirmed exoplanets, 594 of which have the known radii and masses needed to determine their gravity.

Detailed explanation-5: -As one mass increases, the gravitational force between the two bodies increases proportionally. Therefore, if Earth’s mass were doubled, the gravitational force between the sun and Earth would double as well.

Detailed explanation-6: -Nothing would happen to G. G is a universal constant and is independent of the Earth’s mass. The only thing that would change would be the force of attraction. The force of attraction would double if the Earth was twice as massive.

Detailed explanation-7: -6. If Earth’s mass doubled without changing its size, what would happen to your weight? Your weight would double because gravity would double. 12.
