All objects close to the Earth surface fall toward the surface.


Gravitation is responsible for keeping the Earth and the other planets in their orbits around the Sun; for keeping the Moon in its orbit around the Earth; for the formation of tides; for convection, by which fluid flow occurs under the influence of a temperature gradient and gravity; for heating the interiors of forming stars and planets to very high temperatures; and for various other phenomena observed on Earth. Earth's gravity pulls other objects twords it's center without touching them. An objects weight is the amount of gravitatinal force.

Definition of gravitational force and examples?

Gravitational force is the attractive force that exists between any two objects with mass. It is responsible for keeping planets in orbit around the Sun and objects on Earth's surface. Examples include the gravitational force between the Earth and an apple causing it to fall to the ground, and the gravitational force between the Sun and Earth keeping them in orbit.
