F = G(m1m2/r2)
As you see both masses attract one another and are actually in acceleration
towards one another, but the mass of the earth is so much more than the apple
that the acceleration of the earth towards the apple is quite negligible.
==========================
Addendum:
The acceleration of the Earth toward the apple may be quite negligible, but the force is not.
The important thing to be aware of ... which the question asks and the first answer skips by ...
is that there are forces of attraction in both directions, and the forces are equal.
The Earth is attracted to the apple with exactly the same amount of force as the one
that attracts the apple toward the Earth. Another way to say this is: Whatever your
weight is on Earth, the Earth has exactly that same weight on you.
Added:
The above is not quite correct as the force is almost all due to the mass of the earth and one can assume the radius is just approximately the radius from the center of the earth to the apple on the surface, or there about. The question does not need an equal and opposite attraction answer as the implication of gravitational acceleration is obvious. The apple is not pressing down on the earth, nor is the converse implied.
What else can I help you with?
Does the apple attracts the earth if yes why you do not see the earth moving towards an apple?
Yes, the apple does attract the Earth due to gravity. However, the force of gravity is much stronger on more massive objects, so the Earth's gravitational pull on the apple is much greater than the apple's pull on the Earth. As a result, you do not visibly see the Earth moving towards an apple.
Why does an Apple fall toward the earth instead of the earth moving towards the Apple?
Because the mass f the Earth is way greater then the apple's mass. Though apple attracts earth it is so negligible that it is equal to 0
Why does an apple fall to Earth?
The apple has mass. The Earth has mass. The apple falls down, and the Earth "falls" up. The Earth's motion is not measurable. The apple's motion is.
Does the earth attract objects because they have a large mass?
Yes, the Earth's gravitational force attracts objects towards its center. This force is proportional to the mass of the objects and the distance between them, causing objects with larger masses to experience a stronger gravitational pull towards Earth.
What force does earth attracts another object towards itself?
The force that Earth uses to attract objects towards itself is called gravity. This force is dependent on the masses of the objects and the distance between them, as described by Isaac Newton's law of universal gravitation.
Does the apple attracts the earth if yes why you do not see the earth moving towards an apple?
Yes, the apple does attract the Earth due to gravity. However, the force of gravity is much stronger on more massive objects, so the Earth's gravitational pull on the apple is much greater than the apple's pull on the Earth. As a result, you do not visibly see the Earth moving towards an apple.
When apple falls towards the earth the earth moves up to meet the apple. Is it true If yes why earth's motion is noticeable?
No, it is not true that the Earth moves up to meet the apple when it falls towards the Earth. The Earth's mass is much greater than the apple's, so the effect of the apple falling towards the Earth is not noticeable in comparison to the Earth's massive size. The Earth's motion is not easily observable due to its large size and the force of gravity keeping everything in place.
Is there any place on earth where earth does not attract things towards it self?
Probably at the exact centre of the Earth
Why does an Apple fall toward the earth instead of the earth moving towards the Apple?
Because the mass f the Earth is way greater then the apple's mass. Though apple attracts earth it is so negligible that it is equal to 0
Why does the earth does not repel a human body but attract towards itself?
its because of Earth's mass is greater than that of a body
How strongly and what direction does earth pull on a 1N apple How strongly and in what direction does apple pull on earth?
Earth pulls on the 1N apple with a force of 1N in the downward direction (towards the center of the Earth) due to gravity. At the same time, the apple also pulls on Earth with a force of 1N in the upward direction (away from the center of the Earth) according to Newton's third law of motion.
What if there's more gravity on earth?
weight of all object on the earth will increase,will attract more object from space towards it.
Do magnet can attract earth?
May be it may. But it need to be really big enough to attract there magnetic poles. But the gravitation of earth attracts the magnet towards its centre or to say towars the ground.
Why does the apple fall on the earth and not vice versa?
The apple falls on the earth because of gravity. It is the force that causes two particles to pull towards each other.
What happens to an apple potential energy as it falls toward the earth?
The potential energy of the apple decreases as it falls towards the earth due to a conversion of potential energy into kinetic energy. This conversion occurs as gravitational potential energy is transformed into motion energy while the apple accelerates towards the ground.
What is the force that pulls a person towards the center of the earth?
ma granny (:
Why an apple falls down not upwards?
An apple falls downward due to gravity, a force that pulls objects towards the center of the Earth. This force is stronger than any force pushing the apple upwards, causing it to fall towards the ground.
