What force is everywhere around earth?
The force of gravity is both everywhere around and inside Earth.
Why are you attracted to the earth?
Attraction to the Earth is caused by the force of gravity.
What are input and output forces?
An input force is what force you act upon a machine. The output is what it does for you in return.
Where are the lines of force located on earth?
The lines of force are on the northern and southern poles
What pulls down the object to earth?
The force that pulls an object toward earth also pulls the earth toward the object.The two forces are equal. Together, we refer to them as the force of gravity.
What forces act upon a meteor as it falls toward Earth?
Forces of gravity ( gravitational force) pulls the meteor to earth
What to factors act together to keep earth in orbit around the sun?
The mutual gravitational attraction between the earth and the sun is the force that keeps the earth in orbit around the sun. It's the only force required, which is lucky, because it's the only force that exists.
Why Does Gravitational Force Not Act Horizontally?
Because the earth behaves like a magnetic field with the center of the earth pulling everything towards it.... do the math.
When a body is falling freely which force act on it?
no force act on it
Is a force that acts at a distance?
The electric force, the magnetic force and gravity, all act at a distance.The electric force, the magnetic force and gravity, all act at a distance.The electric force, the magnetic force and gravity, all act at a distance.The electric force, the magnetic force and gravity, all act at a distance.
EXplain why you move forward and a boat moves backward when you jump from a boat to a pier.?
The force used when you step from the boat creates an equal reaction on the boat, which has very little friction with the water. If the boat were on the beach, friction with the sand would prevent it from moving very much.Force PairsThe forces two objects exert on each other are called force pairs. The forces in a force pair act in opposite directions and are always equal in size. To jump higher, you must push harder on the ground. Then the ground pushes harder on you.You might think that if force pairs are equal in size and act in opposite directions, they must cancel out. But remember that the forces in force pairs act on different objects. When you jump, you exert a force on Earth, and Earth exerts a force on you. One force in the force pair acts on Earth, and the other force acts on you. These forces don't cancel out because they act on different objects. Equal and opposite forces cancel out only if they act on the same object.Action and ReactionAccording to the third law of motion, forces always act in pairs. For example, when you push on a wall, the wall pushes back on you. One force of the force pair is called the action force, and the other force is the reaction force. Your push on the wall is the action force, and the wall pushing back on you is the reaction force. For every action force, there is a reaction force that is equal in size, but in the opposite direction.

What kinds of forces can act on an object?
Normal force can act on an object
What force act upon a glider in flight?
The forces acting on a flying ball are:1. The frictional force exerted by air on the motion of the ball.2. The gravitational force of the earth, of course.
When a ball is going to be thorwn what force is act?
What force is act when ball is going to be thorn
Can you say that no force acts on a body at rest?
You could say it if you want, but it's not a true statement. Without investigating the situation in detail, we know immediately that every object on Earth, whether at rest or in motion, is acted upon by a gravitational force directed toward the center of the Earth. There are other exceptions to the statement, but we've already disproven it, utterly and easily.
Forces that act on an object at a distance?
Some forces do not involve physical contact between the bodies on which they act. They act through the space between them. Such forces are called Non-Contact Forces or Action-at-a Distance Force. They are of three types, namely, magnetic force, electrostatic force and gravhtational force. Magnetic Force -- The forces which a magnet exerts on iron objects is called magnetic forces. Electrostatic Force -- The force which result due to the repulsion of similar charges or attraction of opposite charges is called electrostatic force. Gravitational force -- The force by which Earth pulls the objects towards its centre is called gravitational force.
