The moon has inertia and wants to keep going in a straight line but the earth has a larger gravitational pull and wants to pull the moon towards it. This causes the moon to circle or orbit the earth.
the gravity wants to pull orbiting objects in, but the inertia wants to keep them moving straight so the gravity just makes it go around
Gravity is the force that brings an item to Earth. Inertia is the force with which the item is brought down.
gravity and inertia combine to keep earth in orbit because the suns gravity keeps the earth in orbit and the inertia keeps the earth from going in a straight line.
Inertia is the property of matter by which it remains in constant, uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force.
Gravity is an ever-present external force.
Momentum
Walking across the room is not work against gravity.Walking up the stairs is work against gravity.Walking down the stairs is work with gravity.
Inertia does not affect gravity, these are two entirely separate things, even though they both are produced by the same thing, which is mass. Mass creates both inertia and gravity, but inertia and gravity do not affect each other.
yes
All bodies with mass are attracted to the Earth by gravity, so when a body is raised you must do work to raise it. This work is equal to force x height, if force is in Newtons and height in meters, the work is in units of Joules.
Zero gravity does not affect inertia. The inertia of an object is an inherent property of the object and is directly proportional to the object's mass.
Yes, peristalsis will work against gravity.
Gravity affects inertia. The lower the gravity, the more inertia.
The two forces that work together to keep the planets in orbit around the sun are gravity and inertia.
Walking across the room is not work against gravity.Walking up the stairs is work against gravity.Walking down the stairs is work with gravity.
yes because inertia balances do not require gravity to opperate. The vibrations (back-and-forth motions) are solely affected by the mass placed on the balance.
Inertia does not affect gravity, these are two entirely separate things, even though they both are produced by the same thing, which is mass. Mass creates both inertia and gravity, but inertia and gravity do not affect each other.
newton discovered inertia
The inertia of earth combines with gravity to keep it from colliding with the sun
Gravity counteracts this inertia, usually the gravity of a body much larger than itself.
gravity and inertia combine to keep earth in orbit because the suns gravity keeps the earth in orbit and the inertia keeps the earth from going in a straight line.
yes
1) The gravitational attraction between the planets and the Sun. 2) The "inertia" of the planets. That's their tendency to move in a straight line unless a force (gravity in this case) acts on them.
