gravitation only attracts, while electrical forces attract when the electrical charges are opposite and repel if the charges are similar. Thus, gravitation is considered a monopole force, while electrostatics is a dipole force.

However, the concept of dark energy, which seem

What universal force is the weakest electric gravitational or magnetic?

gravitational force.


Which force do you compare the electrostatic force to?

Gravitational force.


Difference between electric forces and gravitational forces is that electrical forces include?

In case of electric force there are both repulsive and attractive. But in case of gravitational force, only attractive force. Electrical force between electric charges. Gravitational force between masses. In electric force we use a constant known as permittivity of the medium. But in gravitational force a universal constant known as Gravitational constant is used. Electrical force is very much greater than gravitational force.


On what does electric force depend that is analogous to mass in gravitational force?

Electric charge


How does gravitational force acting on the planet compare to the gravitational force acting on the moon due to the planet?

Which force come into play when object is not in contact?

Electric and gravitational and derivatives of electric force such as Van Der Waals forces.


Electric force is a contact force or force at a distance?

electrostatic force is not a contact force it is force at a distance likely to that of gravitational force.


What are examples of field forces?

Gravitational force field, electric force field, magnetic force field.


How does the electrical force differ from gravity in its manifestation?

Electric force between electric charges where as the gravitational force is between the masses. Electric force is of two types both attractive and repulsive as like charges repel and unlike charges attract. But gravitational force is of only attractive. Electric force between electric charges. So the constant of proportionality has the electric permittivity property. But in case of gravitation, universal gravitation constant plays the equivalent role. It will be the same irrespective of the medium. In case of electric field, permittivity of the medium differ from each other. THe weakest force is the gravitational force where as the electric force would be comparativeley larger. Relatively moving electric field would bring magnetic field. But moving gravitational field does not produce any such field.


How can you compare and contrast force and motion?

What force gravitational or electrical repels as well as attracts?

The gravitational force is only attractive. Electric and magnetic forces can be both attractive and repulsive.


How electric and gravitational forces are compared?

actually in our daily life experience electric force or u can say electromagnetic force is more powerful than gravitational force. electromagnetic force is about 10^59 times stronger than gravitational force... but in light of string theory or m theory gravitational force is also as strong as electromagnetic force in multidimensional universe. for more info.- watch the documentary movie 'the elegant universe' by 'brian greene
