Why does ash from burning wood goes up into the air instead of going downwards even though gravity causes all things to fall downwards?
Air. Density. Lighter or less dense objects float. The ash floats on the hot (less dense) air.
Does the moon effect hurricanes?
No. The moon's gravity only affects the ocean tides. Interesting question though.
Can vegeta train in 750 times earth gravity?
Vegeta can train in as many times earth gravity as he wants to! Though it may take him a while to work up to some numbers, he'll definitely get there; you can count on it.
Why do you float on the moon?
You do not actually float. The gravity on the moon is a fraction of what it is on Earth. As a result objects weigh less and fall more slowly. You may feel almost weightless, though you still have some weight.
Where did the theory of gravity come from?
Though astronomical observations and theories have been around for thousands of years, the coming together of knowledge that tied down the effects of gravity, is attributed to mainly newton and einstien, though a true explanation of gravity is still elusive.
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 do flames of a fire rise even though gravity pulls thing downwards?
It rises precisely due to gravity. The hot air in the flame is lighter (more precisely: it is less dense) than the surrounding colder air.
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 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.
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.
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.
Why at a campfire the ash from the burning wood goes up into the air instead of downwards even though gravity causes things to fall downwards?
Because the tiny ash particles ride in the flow of hot air rising from the fire ... same as the smoke particles do.

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.
As water moves down though the ground what force is acting against it?
The force of gravity is acting against the downward movement of water through the ground. This force is responsible for pulling the water downwards towards the Earth's center.
Does water flow downwards?
Firstly, there is no such thing as "downwards" - items of lesser mass are simply attracted to the central point of items of larger mass - therefore a liquid of small mass is attacted by the gravitional force of the much larger mass of the earth. As we too are so attracted we describe this attraction as "downwards", even though we are just being attracted gravitationally to the centre of our planet.
At a campfire the ash from the burning wood goes up into the air instead of downwards even though gravity causes all things to fall downwards?
While its true (but simplistic) that gravity causes things to fall downwards, the force is more powerful on heavy things then on light things. That's why air, which is very light, remains above the ground. Now, the ash from your campfire is light, but not as light as air, so at first glance it should still fall to the ground. But, you have to understand what's going on with the fire. As the fire warms the air directly above it, that air expands, becoming less dense. The force of gravity on that warm air lessens in comparison to the colder air around the campfire, causing the warmer air to rise. Ashes from your campfire are caught in this rising warm air. Because they have very large surface-area-to-mass ratios, they are much more affected by moving air than by gravity. (This is the same reason a sail on a sailboat billows out in a strong wind, rather than hanging limp.) And so, the ashes rise along with the rising warm air. However, if you continue to follow the flight of the ashes, you will see that, once the ash is freed from the rising warm air, it will eventually fall back to the ground
