If gravity and Inertia stopped working the planet would fly or float away from he sun and get EXTREMELY cold. And everything will die.

What forces make the moon orbit around earth?
gravity and inertia
Does gravity and inertia keep the earth orbit around the earth?
Yes. Clearly the Earth orbits around the Earth.
Which two factors did Newton concluded combine keeping earth in orbit?
Gravity and Inertia.
An object weighs 300N on Earth and 50N on the moon Does the object also have less inertia on the moon?
No, inertia is dependant on mass not weight, weight is dependant on gravity.
What two forces keep the moon and all other satellites in orbit around earth?
Gravity and Inertia
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
What is name force that keep earth certain distance from sun?
Gravity - combined with the Earth's inertia (its mass, and Newton's laws of motion).Gravity - combined with the Earth's inertia (its mass, and Newton's laws of motion).Gravity - combined with the Earth's inertia (its mass, and Newton's laws of motion).Gravity - combined with the Earth's inertia (its mass, and Newton's laws of motion).
What keeps the earth in orbit around the sun and moon in orbit around earth?
The force of gravity and the inertia of the Earth (as it orbits the Sun). Also, gravity combined with the inertia of the Moon (as it orbits the Earth).
What keeps the moon in orbit around earth and earth in orbit around the sun?
The force of gravity and the inertia of the Earth (as it orbits the Sun). Also, gravity combined with the inertia of the Moon (as it orbits the Earth).
What would happen if only gravity acted on earth?
We would go into the sun because we don't have any inertia.. We would die
What forces make the moon orbit around earth?
gravity and inertia
How does gravity work against inertia?
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.
What keeps the earth in orbit with the sun?
Gravity and Inertia keeps the earth in orbit
Why do the earth revolve around the sun?
A combination of inertia and gravity.
What attractive force keeps the moon in orbit around earth?
Gravity is what keeps them in attraction. The force of Gravity is determined by the mass and distance between two or more objects. The other force that keeps the moon in orbit is the moon's inertia. Without inertia the moon would simply fall into Earth; because of Gravity, the same would happen with the planets and the sun.
What orbit shape does earth move in from the effects of gravity and inertia?
An ellipse.
