Yes - IF debris strike the nearby object ... including gasses.

The force (on Earth) from compressing the atmosphere is missing.

What are some of the force that effect an object on earth?

On earth, the forces acting on any object is gravity. Since there is an equal and opposite reaction to any force, the earth pushes back on the object. This is called the normal force.


What effects does gravity have on planets?

The same effect as it has on any other object. The gravitational field produces a force; this force, acting on a planet, will accelerate it - that is, it will change its velocity.


What is The force that pulls the nuclear explosion back into the star?

the dark side of the force


What could happen to an object in orbit without gravity pulling down?

Orbital mechanics are a direct result of the effect of gravitational force. Without gravitational force, no object would orbit any other - they all would follow their own independent straight line travel. Also, in reference to this question's inference that gravity pulls downward (i.e. towards the earth), remember that ALL objects, regardless of size, exert gravitational force. Obviously, the larger the object, the larger the gravitational force; and, the closer the object, the more force it exerts. So, in this case, remember that things near the Earth have at least three major gravitational forces acting on them: the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun. All three gravitational forces "pull" in different directions, and exert a different amount of force (based on the exact location of the orbiting object).


What would the object's mass and weight on Jupiter be?

Well, first you would have to find the object's mass and weight. Since the gravitational force on Jupiter is approximately 2.3 times the gravitational force, you would have to multiply the mass times 2.3 and the weight times 2.3.

What is the effect of balanced force to object whose at rest?

A balanced force has no effect on any object.


What effect does an unbalanced force on an object?

An unbalanced force can completely destroy the object (depending upon its mass and power of force) or can gradually move it or it can also have no effect on the object.


What is tension and compression?

Tension and compression takes place when an object has a force on another object. The tension is when the force is causing a pulling effect on part of the object. The compression is when the force is causing a contracting effect on part of the object.

What is the effect of balanced force to object whose already in motion?

A balanced force has no effect on any object: whether it is already in motion or is at rest is not relevant.


How does force and gravity effect a falling object?

Gravity is a force that accelerates the falling object towards the ground.


What are the effect of force?

How does the linear momentum of the satellite before the explosion compare with the total linear momentum of all the pieces after the explosion. The satellite exploded far from any other body in space?

It's the same after explosion. This is because an explosion is an internal force on the satellite. In physics, an internal force on an object does not affect its motion. The center of mass of the object will continue to move as if no explosion occured. Watch a fireworks show, and you can kind of visualize this.


What effect does gravity have on the mass of an object?

Gravity has no effect on the mass of an object. However, an object's weight is the measurement of gravitational force on the object. The gravitational force on the moon for example is ~ 1/6 of that on Earth. A 300 kg object would weigh 3000N (Newtons) on the Earth but only weigh 500 N on the Moon but its mass would still be 300 kg on the Moon and on the Earth.


What effects does an unbalanced force have on an object?

An unbalanced force can completely destroy the object (depending upon its mass and power of force) or can gradually move it or it can also have no effect on the object.
