It doesn't. The force of gravity depends on the masses involved, and their distance. However, air resistance can introduce other forces, that counteract the force of gravity.

How does air resistance relate to Newton's laws?

It basically explains that for every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force because the air resistance pushes the same amount of force and speed in the same direction of a falling object.


What is the law of resistance?

The laws of resistance describes the resistance of a specific material. There are a total of four laws of resistance.


Who proposed the laws of gravity?

I don't think anybody proposed the laws of gravity. The laws of gravity have existed since the beginning of time and the beginning of the universe.


What year when the 3 laws of motion discovered?

probably shortly after newton discovered gravity and its effect on matter, on the other hand this is a SWAG


What was the resistance to the law?

There was no 'Jewish resistance' to the Nuremberg Laws.


What forces make swing to stop?

Friction of air normally called drag (or air resistance), it could be argued that gravity also takes effect in stopping the swing, if it was only drag the swing could stop ten feet in the air, and if it was just gravity it wouldn't stop due to the laws of mass and momentum. The drag reduces the momentum, therefore making the swing slow to a stop and gravity keeps it as close to the ground as possible.


Why do you eventually stop when going down a hill on a bike?

this would have to deal with the pull of gravity, air resistance, and friction. In Newton's laws it states that a object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon another force. Gravity, air resistance(wind), and friction are the forces. Of course you won't stop if you keep on pedaling.


How does gravity determine the shape of an orbit?

Under the Sun's gravity a planet follows an elliptical orbit that conforms to Kepler's laws of planetary motion. This was discovered at the end of the 1600s by Isaac Newton.


How do gravity and friction affects the motion of an object?

The mass of The Earth is determined by the size. and we have less gravity. which controls movement in the object, and in Newton's laws it explains that every Action has a reaction so what you do to an object will have an effect on it.


What was laws of motion and gravity developed by?

The laws of motion and gravity were developed by a better understanding of the underlying physics.


Who was responsible for the laws of gravity?

Sir Isaac Newton is the recognized founder of the Law of Gravity.
