What else can I help you with?
Why don't we swirl off the earth as it rotates fast?
The Earth's gravitational pull keeps us grounded despite its rapid rotation. The force of gravity is stronger than the centrifugal force created by the Earth's rotation, so we remain firmly in place on the surface.
Does the moon revolve because of gravitational forces?
Yes, the moon revolves about (orbits) the earth because of gravitational forces. However it also rotates (turns/spins) about its axis of rotation - this movement involves gravitational forces as well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Gravity is involved in both the revolution and the rotation of the moon. For more on the rotation (spin) of the moon, see the link below.
Where on earths surface is gravity the strongest?
Gravity is strongest at the Earth's poles and weakest at the equator. This is because the Earth bulges at the equator due to its rotation, creating a slightly greater distance from the center of the Earth to points on the equator, thus reducing the gravitational force experienced there.
Why is the earth is not perfect shape?
Earth's rotation causes the planet to warp slightly, which makes it slightly oblong instead of being a perfect sphere.
Why is the earth circle?
The Earth is not a perfect circle; it is an oblate spheroid due to its rotation causing a slight flattening at the poles and bulging at the equator. This shape helps to balance the forces of gravity and rotation, creating a more stable planet.
Does the sunset in the west?
west is the sunset because of the gravity of the earth! and because of its rotation
How using Earth's rotation speed to escape gravity?
Earth's rotation speed doesn't affect the ability to escape Earth's gravity. Escaping Earth's gravity requires reaching a velocity of about 11.2 km/s regardless of Earth's rotation speed. Earth's rotation does provide a slight boost to the velocity required to escape in the direction of the rotation.
If earth stops to rotate what happens to gravity?
Nothing, the force of gravity is not affected by Earth's rotation. However measurement of WEIGHT would change.
Is the gravity involve in the rotation of earth at its own axis?
No. Earth's gravity is the result of its mass.
What is a true state meant about gravity?
earth rotation on its axis causes gravity to occur on earth
Why are you not affected by the earth's rotation?
Because we are being carried round with it, and the angular velocity is not sufficient to overcome gravity.
Is the earths rotatin by gravity?
No, gravity doesn't cause the Earth's rotation.
What whould happen if the time of rotation for Earth was different?
The days would be longer, and the gravity would be higher if the rotation time of earth was longer. The days would be shorter, and there would be less gravity on Earth if the rotation time decreased.
Would gravity exist even if the earth stopped rotating?
Yes, indeed it would. Gravity is not caused by the rotation of the Earth. In fact, there would be a very small increase in the "apparent gravity" at the Earth's surface because of the lack of a "centrifugal" effect.
What keeps the earth moving?
The Gravity and Rotation in our solar system.
What are Tides on Earth are causes by?
Tides on earth are mainly caused by the moon's gravity and earth's rotation.
Why don't we swirl off the earth as it rotates fast?
The Earth's gravitational pull keeps us grounded despite its rapid rotation. The force of gravity is stronger than the centrifugal force created by the Earth's rotation, so we remain firmly in place on the surface.
