How is a orbit formed?
Interia and gravity combine to make a planet stay in an orbit.
How inertia and gravity combine to keep earth in orbit?
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.
How does inertia and gravity combine to keeps earth in orbit?
The inertia of earth combines with gravity to keep it from colliding with the sun
Which two factors did Newton concluded combine keeping earth in orbit?
Gravity and Inertia.
Why does the earth have a orbit?
Gravity
How is a satellite held in its orbit around earth?
Gravity and velocity vectors in the proper ratio combine to make a state of perpetual falling towards the Earth that always misses
Are satellites orbiting earths gravity?
No. They orbit Earth; and the reason they orbit is because of gravity.
Does the moon's gravity affect the earth's gravity?
The effects would only combine for an object outside the Earth-Moon system (such as an asteroid). Otherwise, objects near the Earth and Moon will experience gravitational effects from both. The Earth's gravity holds the Moon in its orbit, and the Moon's gravity affects the Earth, notably causing the ocean tides.
What keeps the earth in orbit with the sun?
Gravity and Inertia keeps the earth in orbit
Were on earth is their no gravity?
Well on earth everywhere this is gravity. but once you leave earth there is no more gravity ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- No, gravity is present through out all space. When you leave the Earth and go into orbit round it, it APPEARS that there is no gravity, but gravity is causing you to orbit the Earth. You do not feel this gravity because you are in free fall.
What keeps the earth on its orbit?
gravity
Why is there no gravity outside your atmosphere?
There certainly is gravity outside the atmosphere. For example, it is gravity that keeps the Moon in orbit around the Earth, and the Earth in orbit around the Sun.
