You jump off a truck and accelerate toward the surface of the Earth Does the Earth accelerate toward you?
Yes, because you attract the earth with the same gravitational force that the earth attracts you.
How fast must a projectile moving horizontally travel so that the curve it follows matches the curve of the Earth?
The answer is 8km/s
Why does and object accelerate when it falls toward Earth's surface?
Gravity is unopposed while an object is falling.
When you drop your egg device over the balcony it accelerated noticabley toward the earth because of gravitational interation between the egg device and earth does the earth accelerate toward the egg?
Actually, the egg device moves toward the Earth, because usually, the larger object has the greater gravitational pull.
What makes you feel weightless in an elevator?
The earth's gravity causes objects on earth (you) to accelerate toward earth's center at approximately 9.8 m/s2, when an elevator accelerates toward the earth's center (down) some of the force that you feel from gravity (weight) is negated. This results in a feeling of weightlessness.

What is the direction that gravity causes objects to accelerate?
Free fall is caused when gravity pulls it toward earth
What is a sentence for the word accelerate?
He would wildly accelerate his car when the traffic light turned green. Gravity causes falling objects to accelerate as they move toward the Earth. Living in a foreign country can accelerate the speed at which you learn the native language.
What gives an arrow shot horizontally from a bow its vertical movement?
Gravity pulls everything on earth down which gives an arrow that shoots horizontilly its vertical movements.
Gravity causes all objects to accelerate toward and earth at a rate of?
9.8 meters per second squared.

A rocket that moves upward from earth's surface at escape velocity will?
Escape the earth's gravitational pull and continue out into space. However, a rocket does not need to be launched at the escape velocity as it can continue to accelerate as it climbs. A gun projectile would need to be fired with the escape velocity. In a perfect system with only the projectile and the Earth: If the projectile is fired with the exact escape velocity it will travel to infinity away from the Earth. Upon reaching infinitely far away from Earth the projectile would have zero velocity. All of its kinetic energy (movement) would be transferred to potential energy.
What will be the path of a projectile?
The path of a projectile in earth gravity is that of a parabola.
due to the earths gravity a projectile flows a blank path?
Earth's gravity acts downward toward the center of Earth. ... The combination of intitial forward velocity and downward vertical force of gravity cause of projectile to follow a curved path. Force. A push or a pull that acts on an object.
