How did Gravity Assist help the voyager space probe navigate the solar system?
By the gravity pull
Why did John Glenn return to space?
To assist in the study of the affects of no gravity aging.
The movement of blood from legs toward the heart is slowed dowm by gravity the effect of gravity is counteracted by?
The valves in veins assist blood is the movement of blood from the legs. This is slowed by gravity.
Why did John Glenn go back into space?
To assist in the study of the affects of no gravity aging.
What is the most effective agent of erosion?
Most sediments are carried by water, with an assist from gravity, so gravity induced moving water is the most effective agent of erosion.
What is the definition for an airplane?
Airplane is a mechanical structure that has the ability to overcome the gravity and lift off, with the assist of an engine
What are the three forces of erosion?
The three main forces of erosion are wind, water, and ice, with an assist from gravity.
What assist in returning blood to the heart?
skeletal muscle contraction gravity respiratory activity valves
How does gravity assist with venous return in the body?
It actually does the opposite. Gravity pulls blood down, not up. So the veins, especially in the legs, need one way valves in order to pump blood upwards when skeletal muscles contact. That is one reason why exercise is so good for you, even simple walking helps the blood flow back to the heart, against the pull of gravity.
How did gravity assist the voyagers flight to Neptune?
Voyager 2 took 12 years to get to Neptune and it got there via gravity assist also known as the slingshot effect. It went past the orbit of mars onward to Jupiter, using its massive gravity to deflect the space craft towards Saturn. It used Saturn's gravitational pull to deflect itself towards Uranus and did the same thing with Uranus's gravity. Eventually it arrived at Neptune's orbit. It would probably take longer nowadays to do the same thing, because rockets are not built as efficiently as they were back then to get to where they wanted to go.
Why can you pull a garage door down easy after raising it?
Gravity and the weight of the door assist in making it easier to pull down than to pull up.
Do bikes fly?
Not in the conventional sense, no. Bikes can get some big air with a good rider and an assist from terrain, but they cannot defy gravity like an aeroplane, or even a glider can.
