What else can I help you with?
Why do the flames of a fire rise even though gravity pulls thing downwards?
The hot air is less dense so cold air rushes in to shove it upwards like a cork on water.
Flames of fire rise even though gravity pulls things downwards?
Yes. Fire goes upward precisely because Earth's gravity pulls things downward. The fire is lighter (less dense) than the air that replaces it, so the air pushes the hot air from the fire upwards.
Why ball goes upward to downwards?
Gravity pulls it down.
What is the name of the force which pulls the masses downwards?
The force that pulls masses downwards is gravity. It is the force of attraction between all objects that have mass.
What force pulls downwards on a rocket as it is launched into space?
Gravity is the force that pulls downwards on a rocket as it is launched into space. Gravity acts to pull the rocket back towards the Earth's surface.
Why flames of a fire rise even though gravity pull thing downwards?
Gravity pulls denser air down, this pushes the lighter hot air, from the fire, up.Gravity pulls denser air down, this pushes the lighter hot air, from the fire, up.Gravity pulls denser air down, this pushes the lighter hot air, from the fire, up.Gravity pulls denser air down, this pushes the lighter hot air, from the fire, up.
Flames of a fire rise even though gravity pulls things downwards?
The air above and around the flame heats up, expands and moves up. Cooler air below the flame moves in to take its place, heats up, rises and the process repeats itself.
What is the name of the force that pulls you downwards?
Gravity. It is the force that pulls objects with mass towards each other, causing objects to fall towards the Earth.
Why do flames rise even though gravity pulls things downwards?
Flames rise because the hot gases they consist of are lighter than the surrounding air and therefore experience buoyant forces that push them upwards. Gravity still acts on the flames, but the buoyant force is stronger, allowing them to rise.
What is the name of the force that acts downwards?
The force that acts downwards is called gravity. It is the force of attraction that pulls objects towards the center of the Earth.
Why does flames of a fire rise even though gravity pulls things downwards?
Because the warm particles/air from the fire are lighter than the cold air around it. The warm air, being lighter, rises, and the cold, heavy air sinks. Cold air is pulled into the bottom of the fire, warmed and continues the cycle.
Is gravity the force applied up or down on an object?
Gravity pulls things downwards, so it is pointed downwards. If an object is resting on something (like a book resting on a table) an equal force will point upwards and that force is known as the normal force.
