Applicably speaking:
The downward force out of the bottom of a set of Saturn 5 Rockets.
Theoretically speaking:
Anything that can overcome the force of g. Out of the three fundamental forces, both the Electromagnetic and the Nuclear force are more powerful than the Gravitational force.

The down side to it, is that it's very short ranged. It's about 140 times as strong as the next strongest force (the electromagnetic) and about a million times as strong as the one after that (the weak). Gravity comes in last - the strong force is about ten to the power of forty times stronger!

Is gravity potential or kinetic energy?
Gravity is a force more so than an energy
What are the 2 forces involved in sinking and floating?
Gravity is pulling down, and Buoyancy is pushing up. When the force of gravity is greater than the buoyant force, objects sink. When the buoyant force is greater than the force of gravity, objects float.
How powerful are the volturi in twilight?
the Vultori are more powerful than Edward Cullen but not more hot no oh
What is the name given to the force of gravity acting on you?
It's gravity, pure and simple. That's the scientific term, or the physics or astrophysics term. Gravity is a force all matter has. That is, anything that has mass has gravity. Gravity is one of the four fundamental forces in the universe, the others being the electromagnetic force, and the strong interaction (strong force) and weak interaction (weak force). We continue to see a lot of questions about what gravity is and how it works, and we simply don't have a lot of "good" answers. Gravity is the force exerted by an object on any other object because of the mass of the objects. Each of us has gravity, but we don't notice it pulling us toward each other. Our cars, which have more mass than us, don't pull us toward them that we can feel. But all things with mass pull on all others. It's just that on the scale in which we experience things, we don't notice it. Hit the link below to the related question. You may be asking about the effect of gravity acting on you, and not the force. As explained above, the force is simply gravity. The effect is called weight. Weight is fully dependent on gravity (putting accelerated motion aside for the moment), so your weight will be different depending on where you are.
What force acts on an astronaut standing still on the moon?
Gravity, mainly that of the moon. Gravity on the Moon is a lot less than on Earth but it works in the same way.
Is gravity potential or kinetic?
Gravity is a force more so than an energy
Why does the sun have the most powerful force of gravity compared to all other objects in the solar system?
Because the sun has more mass than anything else in our solar system. Gravity is a function of mass.
Is gravity potential or kinetic energy?
Gravity is a force more so than an energy
Would the force of of gravity on ganymede be more or less than the gravity on the moon?
less
Why is the electromagnetic force more complicated than gravity?
It's not. We understand emf, but not gravity.
Why is the force of gravity between you and earth greater than the force of gravity between you and a car?
Earth has much more mass than a car does. Therefore Earth has much stronger gravity.
Why is the force of gravity between you and earth is greater than the force of gravity between you and a car?
The main reason is that Earth has more mass than several billion cars have.
Why is the force of gravity on Earth greater than Pluto?
Earth has a much greater mass than Pluto does, and therefore has stronger gravity.
Does the force of gravity affect the rate of acceleration?
If you are asking the rate of acceleration on a surface, than the larger the force of gravity is, the more it will affect the rate of acceleration. The amount of friction depends one many variables, one of which is gravity. The larger your force of gravity is, the larger the force of friction is. Because of this, the more the force of gravity is, than the slower the rate of acceleration is because of the larger force of friction, which would be acting against the rate of acceleration. Therefore, the force of gravity does affect the rate of acceleration.
The force that dictates that objects weight more at the equator than at the poles is?
gravity
Is the force of gravity more or less than on the earth?
It's essentially the same.
Why do airplanes defy gravity?
Airplanes do not "defy gravity", any more than you do when you walk upstairs. In both cases, an upward force is generated that is greater than the downward force of gravity on an object. Since the net force on the object is then upward, the object accelerates upward.
