Can a helicopter or plane get out of the gravitational pull on earth?
That deppends... if you mean the atmosphere which would equal zero gravity than yes but the earths gravitational pull is what keeps the moon where it is so the planes or helicopters wouldn't be able to get completely out of the pull
WHy is it important to have an atmosphere?
it is important because if they don't know the temperature they
Why do the earth's satellites in orbit high above our atmosphere do not need to burn fuel to keep them in motion?
the earths gravitational pull keeps them in rotation with the earth along with centrifugal force also newtons law applies- an object will stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force
How would earth be different without carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
Humans would die of cold. A little carbon dioxide keeps the earth warm, through the greenhouse effect.
What is the property of matter that keeps it moving in a straight line or keeps it at rest?
Inertia
Why is the Earths atmosphere needed for life?
because it keeps the air inside the earth
What force keeps your atmosphere from floating out into space?
atnosphere gets held back by earths gravtional field
What does the absorption of thermal energy from the ground do to earths surface?
The absorption of thermal energy from the ground heats the lower atmosphere and keeps Earth's surface much warmer than it would if there were no atmosphere. :)
Is it faster to exit or enter the earth's atmosphere?
its faster to enter Earths atmosphere because our gravitational pull pulls anything in , and this is why rockets have to have a lot of power to go out of the atmosphere because the gravitational pull keeps us on its surface.
What two properties of the Earths atmosphere that help support life on earth?
I know that one property is the fact that we have a layer of ozone surrounding the atmosphere, which protects all living organisms from the harmful ultraviolet rays of the sun. Without it, Earth would be much hotter and there would be scarce vegetation. WARNING: The following may or may not be true: I think that the second property is that atmospheric pressure keeps air inside the atmosphere so that organisms can breathe.
What does our atmosphere do for us?
The atmosphere protects us because if we had no atmosphere the sun heat ( ultraviolet radiation ) would go straight to earth and kill us all. with the atmosphere it captures enough heat and keeps the rest out!
What keeps Earth's atmosphere close to the surface?
The gravitational pull keeps the Earth's atmosphere close to the surface...
How is gravity used in rugby union?
Gravity keeps the players from floating into space, and allows the ball to stay on the field, it also allows players to breathe as oxygen is trapped inside the earths atmosphere.
What planet has opaque atmospheres to keep it hot?
Venus has a very thick atmosphere of Carbon dioxide. Its average surface pressure is a crushing 93 bar, or 93 times that of Earths. The thick atmosphere keeps the suns heat in, making it the hottest planet in our solar system.
What does the gravity do to the atmosphere?
Answer: It keeps up from being crushed from the atmosphere around us... it also keeps us from floating away and helps keep the earth the right temp. Answer: Gravity keeps the atmosphere around the planet in the first place.
The earths gravity keeps the planets circling the sun?
The Sun's gravity keeps the planets orbiting the Sun.
