How does gravity change if you double the distance from the center of mass?

It's an inverse squared law. So gravity is (1/2)^2 1/4 of the first value


Could you stand on one foot without moving your center of gravity?

Its possible, if you prepare ahead of time. In order to stand on one foot your center of gravity must line up with the leg you are standing on. When standing normally on two feet your center of gravity lines up with your crotch. If before lifting one leg you first bent your body sideways so the center moves over one leg, then you could lift the other leg and remain balanced.


Where does gravity pull people?

It pulls you to its center or core. Ex. If digging a hole to China (actually impossible) you would first start by digging downwards but after you pass the core or center you'd be going upwards.


What is the universal attraction between two objects that causes them to pull toward each other the earth pulls Avery thing to its center with its force?

You're talking about "gravity". But after a brilliant statement in the first partof your question, you dropped the ball for the second part, and missed oneof the beauties of gravity.Yes indeed, gravity causes two objects to pull toward each other. That means thateverything is pulled toward the center of the earth by gravity, while the earth ispulled to the center of everything by the same force.Whatever you weigh on earth, the earth weighs the same on you. Is that cool or what !


What is masses effect on gravity?

It is masses that cause gravity in the first place.

True


What was newtow the first scientist to discover?

Gravity, that it pulled everything to the center of the earth.


What are effects of gravity?

Gravity causes older people to shrink. Answer Had to chuckle at the first answer though it is not true. Gravity is that force , said to originate from the center of the earth, which affects everything within its influence by attracting it to the earths center. Luckily we have a hard mantle beneath our feet that prevents this from happening.

Why do black holes have a center of gravity?

The 'center of gravity' of any object or volume of space is a point in space ... a place,with a very clear definition. It's the place where the sums of the first moments of everyspeck of mass in every direction are all equal. If the object or the volume of space hasany mass in it, then the center of gravity can be located very precisely and very easilyby applying the definition.


Needs to be really well explained answer so even a 12 year old can understand what is gravity?

Gravity is were an object (such as an apple or YOU!) is pulled towords the center of the earth. We feel gravity but we are used to it therefore we don't notce it. Isaac Newton was the first to call Gravity, gravity, and called te units we mease it in after him(newtons)

How many triangles in the large triangle?

If you are talking about the common triangle puzzle, then there are 27 triangles. There are 16 one-cell triangles, 7 four-cell triangles, 3 nine-cell triangles, and 1 sixteen-cell triangle. There is a link to the pic for you also. _______________________________________________________________________ The answer in a two dimensional way would be 27. However, if you take into account that each triangle can be turned three ways, then you can understand that there are actually 81 triangles in all. THen you could ask the question, how many triangles can fit in this space (i.e. the picture)? The answer is the first level of infinitely many, or Aleph zero. This would be by finding the midpoint of each side of the all the 1- cell triangles and creating a new triangle.

Does gravity switch in the center of the earth?

Gravity always attracts a mass toward the center of the Earth. If you were to dive into a tunnel through the center of the Earth and stretch your arms out like Superman as you descended, then the force of gravity would point in the direction of your fingers until you reached the center, and in the direction of your toes after that. So you might say that the direction of the force had switched around when you passed the center. But if you knew enough Physics to dive into such a tunnel in the first place, then you would know that the force is always directed toward the center of the Earth, and that "down" means different directions in different places, and you would not interpret it as a 'switcheroo'.
