No. They are two seperate forces.

(But their actions on an object may add or subtract from each other.)

What force is anti gravity?

Lots of forces can counter gravity. For instance, when you are standing on the floor, the floor pushes you up, and thus counters the force of gravity. There are other options as well; for instance, if a magnet lifts a piece of iron, the magnet is countering the force of gravity.


How does gravity change with location?

Take a simple bar magnet for example. Place an iron-like object near it and its attracted instantly. Place the object farther away and the object is influenced by less of the magnet's magnetic field. Similarly, the planet Earth, is a huge magnet. The magnetic field thus produced by the earth has an attraction of objects toward its center, i.e. gravity. The farther away from center of Earth you get(or the farther away from a magnet you put a metal object) the less attracted you or I become. So the higher in altitude from the surface of the Earth, the less of an effect gravity will have. Note that this change in gravitational effect is not a linear change, but logarithmic. In order to fully escape Earth's gravity, one would have to travel beyond Earth's Moon.


How does speed and acceleration effect gravity?

Speed or acceleration have no effect on gravity.


What is meant by gravity balanced by electricity?

The given phrase has little meaning. But levitation by a magnet can overcome the force of gravity.


How does air effect gravity?

Air has no effect on gravity. But the presence of air can change the response of an object to the force of gravity alone.

Is the sun a magnet to earth?

Not a magnet, no. But it does attract the Earth and this is due to gravity.


Does the earth act like a big bar magnet?

The earth acts as a sort of magnet. The gravity is like a + and we are - but neither of us have any charge, unlike magnets. The gravity has a downward force on mass (which is always constant) and gives us 'weight'. Weight is not a constant and changes as gravity increases or decreases. Magnets do not effect weight.


Can you make gravity using magnets?

No, but certain properties of gravity can simulated, using a magnet.

How is the world a magnet?

The magnet is in the world because magnetism is one of the fundamental forces of the universe, along with gravity.

What is the name of the force holding us up to earth?

Gravity works as a magnet to hold us to the ground.


How close does a magnet have to be to metal to have an effect on it?

It depends on the gauss value of the magnet. Yourstood on a big magnet. It'scalled Earth. Youre a long way from the poles but it still has an effect on metals.
