All mass attracts all other mass, thats a fact.
The force due to gravity between the earth and another object, is dependent on their combined mass (earth and object), and the square of the distance between the centres of gravity.

What is the earths gravitational field?
All objects within the universe attract all other objects through gravity. as distance increases this attraction lessens to an insignificant amount, however the force is still there. therefore the Earth's gravitational field's range is limitless.
Velocity parallel to earths surface?
gravity
What creates earths motion?
the suns gravity pull creates the earths movement as well as the other planets
Which marks the boundary where earths atmosphere is constrained by gravity?
magnetosphere.
Does Mars' gravity affect other objects?
yes it does but the gravity is 38% of the earths gravity and if doesn't affect objects then it will have no moon
Where does gravity pull people and objects?
On the earths surface gravity pulls you down.
The earths gravity attracts things towards it which is why objects have?
weights
How would the gravity of mars affect the landing of a spacecraft?
Does mars' gravity affect other objects. yes it does but the gravity is 38% of the earths gravity and if doesn't affect objects then it will have no moon.
What is the pull of earths gravity called?
You call it the "weight" of objects on Earth.
What happens to objects that enter the earths atmosphere?
the objects which enter the earths atmosphere are being pulled down towards the earths surface due to the earths gravity. And so it leads to falling falling of large objects from the space on the surface of the earth.
The forces acting on objects falling near the earths surface are?
Mainly gravity, and air resistance.
How does gravity affect the earths surface?
It makes things weigh more or less, depending on the surface gravity.
What does the pull of Earth's gravity give to all matter on Earth?
You can consider the affects of earths gravity to that of a giant magnet which attracts everything to it.
Does earths gravity affect space?
No. Space is literally nothing. No oxygen, no air, no dust, nothing. objects in space, yes, the earths gravity does affect it. otherwise the moon would just fly away.
Which planets surface gravity is 38 percent that of earths?
Both mercury and mars have a gravity which is around 38% of earths. Mercury's gravity is 37.8% of earths, Mars' gravity is 37.7% of earths.
What is earths gravity?
The force that pulls objects to the ground.
