What else can I help you with?
When the forward inertia of a projectile balances the downward pull of gravity the object is?
Your question isn't exactly stated correctly, but the result that I believe you are looking for is that, the object will be in Orbit around the Earth. This happens when the Centrifugal Force (outward from the rotation) balances out against the Pull of Gravity (Inward). For a body rotating about the Earth, the inward Force would be the Force of Gravity, which would account for the Centripetal Force. Gravity is 'taking the place of' the piece of string that holds an object in place when it is swung around in a circle.
After a shuttle is launched into orbit what happens to gravity?
There is no gravity in space but the shuttle stays in orbit because of the Earths gravity and inertia. The inertia keeps it going in a circular motion. In space the Earth's gravity is strong enough to hold something in orbit but not strong enough to pull it to Earth's surface.
What is a force that resists motion?
A force that resists motion is inertia.
What two motions combine to produce an orbit?
gravity and acceleration
The force that opposes the motion of an object?
Gravity. The inertia of an object will keep it moving until an opposing force stops it.Friction.Called inertia. To accelerate a body the force is mass times acceleration. No force = no acceleration. People say " the force is opposed by the massacceleration"
Result of the combination of an object's forward inertia and the downward pull of gravity on the object?
The path that the object takes to either strike the ground or to orbit the body.
Result of the combination of an objects forward inertia and the downward pull of gravity on the object?
If there is no forces acting, it will continue horizontally at constant velocity, while uniformly accelerating vertically down , the effect of this would trace a parabolic curve
What is it called when a satellite's inertia carries it forward while gravity pulls it downward?
This is known as orbital motion, where a satellite's forward velocity allows it to maintain its orbit while being continuously pulled towards the center of the Earth by gravity. This delicate balance between inertia and gravity keeps the satellite in a stable path around the planet.
Does a bottle thrown from a speeding car continue to move forward or instantly fall to the ground?
The bottle will continue to move forward due to inertia even after being thrown from a speeding car. It will follow a curved trajectory due to the combination of its forward speed and the downward pull of gravity.
What is the result of thecombination of an object's forward inertia and the downward pull of gravity on the object?
The result of the gravitational force is that the object accelerates downward.When that's combined with its constant horizontal speed, the object follows apath that curves downward, and is actually a piece of a parabola.In general, the motion of objects with some horizontal speed under the influence ofgravity is called "projectile" motion, because when the effect of air resistance isignored, it describes the motion of things like javelins, cannonballs, and burned-outrockets. It's a favorite subject commonly found in elementary Algebra and Physics.
How does inertia and gravity combine to make the planets orbit the sun?
The sun's gravity is pulling the planets toward it and the planets inertia keeps them moving forward
What are two forces that oppose flight?
Gravity and drag are two forces that oppose flight. Gravity pulls the aircraft downward, while drag slows the aircraft's forward movement. Both forces must be overcome for an object to achieve and maintain flight.
Why do the earth revolve around the sun?
A combination of inertia and gravity.
What were the two factors Isaac Newton concluded that combined to keep the planets in orbit?
Isaac Newton concluded that the force of gravity and the forward motion of the planets combined to keep them in orbit around the Sun. The force of gravity pulls the planets towards the Sun, while the forward motion of the planets creates the centrifugal force that counteracts gravity, leading to stable orbits.
Explain why when you throw a ball it travels in an arc and not in a perfectly straight line?
When you throw a ball, it follows a curved path due to a combination of two forces: gravity pulling the ball downward and the initial forward velocity you give the ball. The force of gravity causes the ball to accelerate downward, while the initial forward velocity causes the ball to move horizontally. These two forces interact to create the ball's curved trajectory known as an arc.
How does a bicycle stay upright when moving?
A combination of inertia and centrifugal force. The wheels, once rotating, create centrifugal force which in conjunction with gravity cause the bicycle to move forward creating inertia. the more energy put into the bike via the drivetrain, the more inertia is created and the more stable the bike becomes.
What two forces work together to keep the planets in orbit around the sun?
The two forces that work together to keep the planets in orbit around the sun are gravity and inertia.
