There would be nothing to hold us, or any loose object or fluid, down against the spin of the Earth, so the spinning Earth would throw us off. The Earth turns at a rate of about 1,000 miles per hour at the Equator, lessening as you get closer to the poles. It would be very unpleasant, briefly.

Playing with the basic laws of physics requires lots of imagination.

The moon would leave orbit and would likely assume an irregular orbit about the sun (assuming the sun still had gravity).

The atmosphere would all drift away.

The oceans would be hurled into space at 1000 miles per hour at the equator.

The continents would drift away, starting with equatorial areas and with the polar regions last.

The rest of the earth would spin itself apart a layer at a time until there was too little rotating mass left to break apart.

Everything on Earth will float in all directions.

What was the reason when the moon move if force of gravity suddenly disappeared and moon move if inertia suddenly disappeared?

If gravity suddenly disappeared, the moon would fly out into space in a straight line. If the moon suddenly stopped moving it would fall straight into Earth.


What would happen if the force of gravity were to disappear suddenly?

Yes, but we would die first because gravity holds down air (oxygen and nitrogen and other stuff) and if the gravity leaves, then there's no air to breathe. No need to worry. Gravity isn't going anywhere any time soon.


What would happen to earth if the sun's gravity suddenly stopped acting on it?

Gravity is an inherent property of matter; it is unrelated to the Earth's rotation. You may be asking if the centripetal force of the Earth's rotation is significantly counteracting the Earth's gravity. The answer is, "No." If the Earth were not rotating, your apparent weight would be no more than about 5% more than it is. If the Earth stopped in it's orbit, then we would probably crash into the sun. This would happen because there is gravity and centrifugal force keeping the Earth in orbit. If the centrifugal force stopped, but gravity kept going then we would keep going until we hit something. Just like in space, If something is pushed by a greater force, it keeps going until something bigger stops it. This is Newtons first law of motion.


What will happen to somenone that goes to mars and the gravity is 38 percent as strong as the earth gravity?

He will be so pleased to find that he has lost 62% of his weight that he may want to stay there.


Does mercury have stronger or weaker weaker gravity?

Mercury has weaker gravity compared to Earth. Its surface gravity is about 38% of Earth's gravity.

What would happen to your sense of gravity on earth if the sun were to suddenly disappear?

The same thing that happens every night when the sun disappears...nothing! Gravity on Earth is not dependent on the Sun. But life on Earth is, gravity would be the least of Earth's problems if the Sun dissapeared


What would happen to your weight if the force of gravity on earth suddenly grew stronger?

If the force of gravity on Earth suddenly grew stronger, your weight would increase because weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on your mass. Your body would feel heavier and you would find it more difficult to move around.


What will happen to earth gravity?

There's no known reason why anything should happen to Earth's gravity, and nothing is expected to.


What would happen if the force of earth's gravity suddenly stop pulling in the moon?

In that case, the Moon would move in a straight line instead of moving around the Earth; it would quickly get away.


What would happen to earth if gravity fails?

It will never happen because the earth's gravity is caused by it's mass and it's density.


What would happen if the sun suddenly turned into a black hole?

If the sun were to suddenly turn into a black hole, it would not affect Earth's orbit or cause it to be sucked in. However, the lack of sunlight would lead to a rapid drop in temperature, causing all life on Earth to perish.


If the sun's mass was to suddely plummet to zero what would happen to the earth?

What would happen to the earth if the sun's mass (and, thereby, its gravity) suddenly went to zero? The earth would continue moving in the direction it was going when the sun's gravity disappeared. It would depart the area on a tangent to its original orbit and head off into space. There would be dark days ahead.

What was the reason when the moon move if force of gravity suddenly disappeared and moon move if inertia suddenly disappeared?

If gravity suddenly disappeared, the moon would fly out into space in a straight line. If the moon suddenly stopped moving it would fall straight into Earth.


What will happen to mass and weight of a body on earth if suddenly gravitational attraction of the earth disappeared?

Your mass would be unaffected, it is simply to do with the atoms in your body. Your weight would be reduced to zero as that is simply how much your body is affected by gravity.


What would happen if the earth's orbit suddenly became smaller?

The earth's water would evaporate.
