What would happen to the earth if the sun's gravity were to disappear?

If th sun's gravity were to disappear, Earth would go off in a straight line into interstellar space.


Does the Earth have gravety foce?

Yes. All planets do. If no gravity is present on earth, if you jump you'll go on forever straight into the sky and space.


How inertia and gravity combine to keep earth in orbit?

gravity and inertia combine to keep earth in orbit because the suns gravity keeps the earth in orbit and the inertia keeps the earth from going in a straight line.


How do planets go in straight lines like meteoroites go straight but were connect to going round?

All bodies travel in a straight line relative relative to space-time except when influenced by gravity. Meteorites follow the same rules and travel in lines following gravity. They travel so fast that in Earth's atmosphere they tend to burn up while looking as if they are going straight. But they are following the path established by gravity.


Why does the earth not moves due to gravity?

The earth does move due to gravity.Without gravity, the earth would move in a straight line. The force of gravity between earth and the sunis what bends the earth's path into a closed curve around the sun, called earth's "orbit".


Why is gravity important in the relationship between the Earth moon and the sun?

Because gravity is the force that holds them together. If you take it away they all go off in a straight line on their own into outer space.


How does gravity work against inertia?

The moon has inertia and wants to keep going in a straight line but the earth has a larger gravitational pull and wants to pull the moon towards it. This causes the moon to circle or orbit the earth.


How do gravity and inertia work together in the solar system?

The Earth's gravity is trying to pull the Moon towards the Earth. However, the Moon has inertia. It is trying to move in a straight line. If the Moon had no "sideways" velocity it would fall onto the Earth. In fact the Earth's gravity is needed just to bend the direction of the Moon's path and make the Moon orbit the Earth instead of flying off into space. This becomes clear if you do the mathematics, but that's the basic idea.


Were on earth is their no gravity?

Well on earth everywhere this is gravity. but once you leave earth there is no more gravity ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- No, gravity is present through out all space. When you leave the Earth and go into orbit round it, it APPEARS that there is no gravity, but gravity is causing you to orbit the Earth. You do not feel this gravity because you are in free fall.


Why does a ball arch when thrown and not in a straight line?

The gravity from Earth pulls it down, thus changing its direction.The gravity from Earth pulls it down, thus changing its direction.The gravity from Earth pulls it down, thus changing its direction.The gravity from Earth pulls it down, thus changing its direction.


What are the two factors that keep the earth orbiting the sun and the moon orbiting the earth?

Gravity and Inertia. The gravity keeps the planet, moon etc. going in a circle and inertia keeps it going (inertia is the tendency of a moving object to continue in a straight line or a stationary object to remain in place. If there was no gravity the planet, moon etc. would just go in a straight line but with gravity it pulls it in a circle like a string attached to an object at the center.
