Why are large astronomical bodies such as planet and stars around?
all parts of the planet pulled each other toward the center of the mass by gravity
What is the name of the effect that causes wind to spin around large pressure areas?
Coriolis Force.
Newton's 3rd law in bull riding?
The bull is exerting a force on the rider which is 10x greater than the rider's force. Because the bull's mass is so large, when it bucks, it causes the rider to fly and fling.
Do you need a large force to obtain a large pressure?
No! Pressure is force per unit area: p=f/a. Thus it does not require a large force to produce a large pressure; reducing the area increases the pressure for the same applied force. The thumbtack, for example, can be considered to be a pressure amplifier since a small force applied to the head becomes a very large force at the pointed end of the thumbtack. Not if you have a narrow bore pipe.
What is the area beyond a black hole where black hole has stopped expanding and matter will no longer be pulled in?
There is no definite boundary for matter not being pulled toward a black hole. At large distances the effects of a black hole's gravity are not different from that of a different object of the same mass. How far out a black hole's gravity is dominant depends on that black hole's mass and its proximity to other massive objects.
If objects with large mass are pulled on by gravity with more force but what do they have more of?
Mass

Why don't you feel a pull toward a large building?
There is insufficient mass to make any gravitational force detectable.
Is gravity the natural force that causes objects to move toward the center of the Earth?
yes on any object. Everything has some gravitational force, but the World is so large, making the force strong. That is why you would be lighter on the moon. The moon is smaller therefore less gravity, therefore you weigh less since weight is the amount of gravity acting on the object.
What is the name of the effect that causes wind to spin around large pressure areas?
Coriolis Force.
Can you have a square star?
Not as gravity and physics are currently understood.Any sufficiently large object (such as a moon, planet, or star) will have a large gravity field that will pull it into a rounded shape. This is called hydrostatic equilibrium. Any part of the object that is much farther from the center of mass will be pulled back toward the center. Planets and stars also "bulge" outward if they are spinning, but this is done against the force of gravity.
When a force is exerted on an object does a large force always produce greater change in the object's momentum than a smaller force does explain?
No this causes an unbalanced force or a balanced forceNO chizz you rape the poor person!
Why do you orbit?
Objects orbit because planets, stars, and other large objects in space have their own gravitational pull. If it gets close enough, it will be pulled toward the object with a gravitational pull. If it is at the edge of its gravitational pull field, it will be pulled, but not directly at it and instead increase the speed it is moving at
Why does an arrow shot from a bow have a large momentum?
When an arrow is shot from a bow it gains kinetic energy from elasticity in the bw string. When pulled back there is potential energy. The farther it it pulled back the more energy is gained. When released it is converted into kinetic energy. Thus it has large Momentum Momentum is the force and speed at which the object is moving
If all objects have gravity why arent you pulled toward a large bulding when you tand near it?
The gravitational pull between two objects depends on the mass of those objects and on their distance from one another. A large building isn't nearly large enough to create the gravitational pull to draw you towards it.
Why doesnt the mass of most object cause a force large enough to move object toward each other?
it does, gravity just inhibits it most of the time.
The mass of most objects around you does not cause a force large enough to move objects toward each other because?
the mass of the object is too small
