The only thing that makes gravitational forces is mass. Any massive object (meaning any object that has mass, not an object of great mass) produces a gravitational field. The Calvendish Experiment that first measured the Gravitational constant employed two large spherical masses, probably Bowling balls but but he was too proud to admit that such was what he used.

What two things does gravitational forces depend on?

Gravitational forces depend on the masses of the objects involved and the distance between them. The force of gravity increases with the mass of the objects and decreases with the distance between them.


Give three dfferences between gravity and electronmagnetic forces?

Gravity and electromagnetic forces differ in that gravitational force is the result of mass interaction and electromagnetic forces are the result of charge interaction.


What is a main difference between gravitational and electr onic forces is that electrical forces?

The main difference between gravitational and electronic forces is that electrical forces originate from the interaction between charged particles, such as electrons and protons, while gravitational forces arise from the mass of objects. Additionally, electrical forces can be attractive or repulsive based on the charges involved, whereas gravity is always an attractive force between masses.


How gravity affect objects through gas?

Gravity doesn't care what, if anything, is in the space between the objects. Whatever it is has no effect on the mutual gravitational forces of attraction between them. There's no such thing as "gravitational shielding".


Is gravity or non contact force?

gravitational forces are experience between to objects without any contact between them


What are the two gravitational forces?

gravity and obesity


Which force pulls everything down to earth?

The force that pushes downward on objects on earth is called gravity.


What does the strength of gravity depend on?

The strength of gravity depends on the value of the universal gravitational constant.The size of the gravitational forces between two objects depends on the productof their masses, and on the distance between their centers.


Is gravitational force of earth act in vacuum made by men on earth surface?

Gravitational forces act between every two masses. It makes no difference what is in the space between them, or what is not there, or how it came to be there or not to be there. Gravity does not care. Nothing in between the masses will make the gravitational forces any stronger or any weaker.


What are the factors affecting the strength of the forces of gravity?

The strength of the gravitational forces between two masses depend on . . .-- The product of the masses of the two masses, and-- The distance between their centers of mass.


Why can you not feel a gravitational attraction between you and an object?

You cannot feel the gravitational attraction between you and an object because the force of gravity is very weak compared to the other forces acting on you (such as electromagnetic forces). Additionally, other factors like the Earth's gravitational field are much stronger, so you are not as sensitive to the gravitational attraction between you and smaller objects.


Is mass and gravity releted?

Yes. Magnitude (strength) of the gravitational forces between two objects is proportional to the product of their masses.
