Use your knowledge of gravity to explain why it makes sense that Jupiter has more moons than Earth. In your response be sure to: a. compare the masses of Earth and Jupiter.

b. discuss the role of gravity in the orbital motion of objects in space.

The size of Jupiter is much larger than Earth, meaning it's gravitational pull is stronger. The mass of Jupiter is 318 times bigger than Earth. In order to calculate the gravitational force between two objects with masses of m1 and m2 , the equation is: where G is the gravitational constant (6.67E-11 m3 s-2 kg-1), r is the distance between the two objects, and F is the magnitude of the force between the objects.Every object in space exerts a gravitational pull on every other, and so gravity influences the paths taken by everything traveling through space. It is the glue that holds together entire galaxies. It keeps planets in orbit. It makes it possible to use human-made satellites and to go to and return from the Moon.

Explanation:

hurricanes form when warm, moist air from the ocean surface quickly rises into the atmosphere and forms storm clouds and rain. when the clouds are formed, heat is released which warms the cool air in the upper regions of the atmosphere so that the cycle can continue. which two phases of the water cycle are repeated in this process?
