All objects near the Earth's surface regardless of size and weight have the same force of gravity acting on them True or false?
False. The question says "... regardless of size and weight ...", but it is weight that is the force of gravitybetween the object and the earth. So when the weight is different, the force is different, by definition.
Are there forces acting on a car that is at rest?
Yes, gravity is constantly acting on all objects even when they are at rest.
How is gravity different for objects that freely fall down and those thrown upwards?
The gravity acting on a rising object and that on a falling object are the same when these objects are at the same height. What is different is that a rising object is decelerating by the force of gravity and the falling object is accelerating.
When objects are moved further apart from each other the force of gravity does what?
In classical physics, the force of gravity between two objects is given by the following equation: F = G(Mm/(r^2)) Where F is the force, G is a number called the Universal Gravitational Constant, M and m are the masses of the two objects, respectively, and r is the distance between them. From this equation we see that F, the force is proportional to 1/(r^2). This is known as the inverse squares law. When objects are moved apart, the radius r increases and so the force of gravity decreases in accordance with the inverse square proportionality.
How does gravity effect objects in the universe?
usually gravity is called the force of earth with witch it pulls objects towards it.when an object moves away from the surface of earth then this force affect on that object and tried to pull towards the earth.
The forces acting on objects falling near the earths surface are?
Mainly gravity, and air resistance.

What is a force acting between two objects?
gravity
Why does s not gravity pull fish to the surface?
gravity is a force that pulls objects towards one another. if one of those objects is very massive compared to the other, as in a person on the surface of the earth, it can seem like gravity is only acting in one direction (it is still acting both ways, but the earth force of gravity exerted on the earth by a person is infinitesimally small.) In the case of fish in the ocean, it might seem like they should be attracted to the surface of the earth, because that's what objects on the surface are attracted to, but really all objects are attracted to the center of the earth, because that is its center of gravity - so there is no reason the fish should be pulled to the surface. On the other hand, the reason fish don't fall to the bottom of the ocean is due in great part to the force of buoyancy.
Are there forces acting on a car that is at rest?
Yes, gravity is constantly acting on all objects even when they are at rest.
Is gravity a core in the center of the earth?
No, gravity is a force of attraction acting between all objects that have mass.
What force is acting if you fall from a bike?
gravity it pulls all objects down
Are there forces acting on objects at rest?
Yes there is air force, Gravity, his weight etc.
When the only force acting on a falling object is gravity the objects is said to be?
= Terminal velocity =
What is the reason behind gravitation?
Based on Einstein's theory of relativity, spacetime is curved around massive objects, and gravity "acting" on objects is actually just the objects following this curve in spacetime. Gravity is not a force.
Does an object at rest have forces acting on it and if so what forces would be along the vertical axis?
All objects on earth have the force of Gravity acting on them.
Can the weight of an object be determined underground?
Not accurately. Weight is a function of gravity acting on mass. Objects underground have gravity pulling them up as well as down.
