What is the name of the downwards force?
Gravity
What is the name of the force that pulls you downwards?
Gravity !
What are the differences between mass weight and gravity?
Gravity is the name of the force downwards Weight is the force downwards measured in Newtons Mass is how heavy something is measured in KG
How is force acting on a falling object?
1.a buoyant force acting on the body upwards due to air . 2.the weight of body acting downwards . this two forces acts.....
When an object is in rest all the forces acting on it are in what?
All the forces acting on each other are in equilibrium. For instance the restoring force upward from the ground/floor is equal to the strength of the force of gravity, which acts downwards.

What is the magnitude and direction of the net force acting on a kite skillfully held stationary in the sky?
Zero. Weight acts downwards. Air resistance acts perpendicular to the kite area. Tension in the string acts along its length. Adding these together (as a vector diagram, if you like) produces a net force of 0.

All the forces acting on each other are in equilibrium. For instance the restoring force upward from the ground/floor is equal to the strength of the force of gravity, which acts downwards.
What force makes things fall downwards?
The force that makes things pull downwards is called "gravity". That's why we don't float when we jump.
When does an object not move downwards under the effect of gravity?
On every object on earth, earth exerts a force on it which is equal to the weight of object. When we throw a object it earth exerts force on it and it came downwards but if we throw it with escape velocity then it will not move downwards.
How big is the force from the spring compared to the downwards force?
Equal and opposite (Newton's law)
What is the name for the force that acts on rock to change its shape or volume?
Erosion
Does atmospheric pressure goes on downwards direction only?
no, it acts in all directions
What is the force of gracity that acts between all objects in the universe?
Our scientists have given it the name "force of gravity".
