-- You slide your mouse to the edge of the desk and lose your grip on it at the
same time. It accelerates toward the center of the Earth until the floor stops it.
-- You kick off your covers during the night, but you stay on your bed anyway.
-- You roll over in bed once too many. You accelerate toward the center of the
Earth until the floor stops you.
-- You accidentally hit a glass of soda with the back of your hand, tipping it so far
that the line between its center of mass and the center of the Earth no longer
passes through the bottom of the glass. At that point, the glass takes over and
continues to tip on its own. Meanwhile, the liquid in it runs out, and accelerates
toward the center of the Earth until the table stops part of it and the floor stops
the rest of it.
-- An airplane throttles its engine back, reducing the thrust acting on it, which
in turn reduces its airspeed and the lift developed by air pouring over its wings.
Whether or not the elevator surface is adjusted to temporarily maintain altitude,
it's a losing effort. Eventually, the aircraft must begin to lose altitude, and must
continue to do so until the ground stops it.
-- As a hilarious prank, several youngsters lug a large rock to the top of the tallest
building in town, roll it out to the edge, and heave it over. The Earth accelerates
toward the center of the rock, until the two meet and they stop moving toward
each other.
-- A weekend duffer hits a mighty drive off the tee of the 2-km par-9 3rd hole at
his neighborhood links. The ball enters a broad parabolic path, gaining altitude
steadily but at an unmistakeably dwindling rate. Eventually, it ceases its climb and
begins to drop, slowly at first, but with the steady growth of a burgeoning vertical
component of velocity, accelerating toward the center of the Earth until either the
sand or the water stop it.
-- What goes up must come down.
-- the act of walking
-- the act of sitting in a chair
-- the convenient presence of air around us at all times
-- the helpful behavior of water from the tap while we wash hands or dishes
-- our bicycles remaining on the ground as we ride
-- coasting downhill, gaining speed, without pedaling
-- not losing your Golf ball to outer space after a drive off the tee, or the hardball after a homer
-- the act of drinking beer or soda from the bottle
-- the stable orbit in which the Earth circuits the Sun
For example, the Sun attracts the Earth, keeping it in orbit. Example 2: The Earth attracts us, keeping us on it.
if you drop a light bulb on the floor and it breaks that is because of force of gravity
Friction: Your car tires against the ground Gravity: An apple falling from a tree on to you head
Those are all forces.
It involves pushing, gravity, and friction.
friction
up thrust, friction, air resistance, gravity and that's all i know
No, friction is caused by the electrostatic attractions between atoms on contacting surfaces and physical surface irregularities. Gravity has no effect on friction.
- Gravity/weight - Air resistance/drag/friction - Centrapetal force
friction, magnetic repulsion, gravity and mass
Those are all forces.

Friction has 100% nothing to do this the Earths orbit, its gravity and inertia.
Friction and gravity affect your score, but not your skill.'Skill' is your ability to account for the effects of friction and gravity,while you plan the eventual outcome that you want to achieve.
