How does tide affect gravity on earth's surface?
It does not. Gravity affects tides or more correctly causes them.
What factor is most responsible for Earth's atmospheric pressure?
gravity,friction,atmospheric condition,coriolis force
Is magnetism stronger or is gravity stronger?
Quite simply, magnetism is stronger than gravity. In order to see a gravitational attractment you need a big difference in the force while magnetism all you need is opposite poles to attract each other. Imagine the difference between the whole earth and a small pebble. That's the difference you need in-order to achieve gravitational attractment.
Explain how earths gravity affects objects that are on or near earth?
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.
Why is the earth is not perfect shape?
Earth's rotation causes the planet to warp slightly, which makes it slightly oblong instead of being a perfect sphere.
Does the earth hold onto the moon with magnetism?
Not magnetism, gravity.
Describe two forces that can affect an objects velocity?
Friction and Gravity are the two forces that affects an object's velocity. Friction is caused by both air and the surface on which an object is moving. Gravity is caused by Earth.
Is magnetism the same as gravity?
no it is not because gravity brings things down to earth and magnetism can push things up.
Does the Earths magnetism cause the Earth to orbit the sun?
No. Magnetism has nothing to do with it. It's strictly the result of gravity.
What are the changes of the earth when its gravity is as weak as the moon?
Gravity doesnt decline like magnetism, its fixed and proportional to the mass of the earth.
What enables us to walk on earth?
gravity and friction...
What are some forces outside earth?
Magnetism, friction, and reaction forces in general.
How does gravity from the moon affects the earth?
No, gravity on the moon is completely seperate and does not affect the earth.
Is tis correct the force of gravity keeps Earth in its orbit or is it friction not gravity?
Friction has 100% nothing to do this the Earths orbit, its gravity and inertia.
How do gravity and friction affects the motion of an object?
The mass of The Earth is determined by the size. and we have less gravity. which controls movement in the object, and in Newton's laws it explains that every Action has a reaction so what you do to an object will have an effect on it.
How magnatism electricity gravity is in earth?
Your question is ambiguous. Are you asking why gravity exists or is gravity or more to the point can Gravity/Magnetism be used as an energy source.
What is the force that affects objects on Earth?
Gravity?
