When things are dropped or thrown they fall to Earth because of gravity. What kind of force does gravity have on things?

It has an attractive force somewhat similar to a magnet and metal. But, the force (acceleration) of gravity is still not understood.

Why do things thrown upward fall back to the ground?
Because of the force of gravity
Why motion of body thrown from a certain height?
The body will move: * Because of its initial motion (the question states that it is thrown) * Because of gravity
Why do objects fall to the ground when thrown upward?
Objects fall to the ground because of the force of gravity.
Why every object falls downward while thrown up?
Because there is gravity that why we stay on the ground and not fly in the sky.
Why does the speed of a ball thrown against gravity decrease?
Because gravity exerts a constant force on it in the opposite direction. Just as you do to stop a shopping cart that's rolling away.

What does gravity do to the path of an object that is thrown horiziontally?
It doesn't matter whether the object is thrown down, up, horizontally, or diagonally. Once it leaves the thrower's hand, it is accelerated downward by an amount equal to acceleration of gravity on the planet where this is all happening. On Earth, if you throw an object horizontally, it accelerates downward at the rate of 9.8 meters per second2 ... just as it would if you simply dropped it. Whether it's dropped or thrown horizontally, it hits the ground at the same time.
Why would a baseball go higher if it were thrown from the surface of the Moon than if it were thrown with the same velocity from the surface of Earth?
because of 0 gravity
What would happen if a ball was thrown and there was no gravity?
They would reach the ground at the same time and whoever dropped them would die of suffocation.
Why do objects fall to the ground when thrown upward?
Objects fall to the ground because of the force of gravity.
Why is gravity a good choice of force to use for measuring the shear strength of different materials?
I think its because gravity is all around us. Materials are used to make structures and buildings, which will house valuable things. Which means the materials used will have to be able to take the gravity and the elements that are thrown at them.
Why does a bullet shot horizontally hit the ground at the same time as one just dropped?
Because the horizontal and vertical motion of an object are separate. This means that a thrown object will accelerate with the same amount of acceleration as a dropped object (about 9.8 m/s2 acceleration due to gravity) causing them to hit the ground at the same time
What is the synonyms of thrown?
dropped, tossed, sent out
How does gravity apply to basketball?
Gravity applies to basketball when a player shoots or passes the ball because, when the ball is thrown it with start to fall because of gravity. In conclusion if you are shooting far back you would aim higher because the ball would drop.
Why things thrown upward goes back to the ground?
Because they are in Earth's gravity well. They would have to move much faster than you can throw them to keep going up instead of falling back down.
