You can't shut gravity off or insulate yourself against it, so the only way to fight it
is to use a force in the opposite direction that's greater than the force of gravity.
This is most often accomplished through the use of devices known as "muscles".
A few examples of the process include walking up stairs, lifting a book up from a
table, and throwing a Basketball in a ballistic trajectory, precisely calculated so as
to intersect with the center of the hoop some time after gravity regains control.
I just want to add something here. There are several ways to oppose gravity. You know Hydrogen is the lightest element known to humans and it is so light that it can escape gravity and rise up. So, that property is intrinsic to that of Hydrogen. Now, in experimental cases you can oppose gravity through magnetism. When you bring two similar poles of magnets close together they will repel each other. Now place one magnet over another and they would repel one another and float. You have to do this experiment in a systematic manner.
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.
The factors that affect the ability of gravity to do work include the distance the object falls, the mass of the object, and the presence of other forces that may oppose gravity, such as friction or air resistance. The work done by gravity is determined by the height through which the object falls and the force of gravity acting on the object.
The earth's gravitational pull makes objects sink in a liquid, but buoyancy acts in the opposite direction to oppose the gravity. Whether an object sinks or floats depends on which force is bigger. ================================
Initially, the skydiver will experience an acceleration due to gravity, which is approximately 9.81 m/s^2 downward. As the skydiver falls, air resistance will oppose this acceleration, causing the skydiver to reach a terminal velocity where the downward acceleration due to gravity is balanced by the upward force of air resistance.
The forces acting on a stationary boat in still water are gravity acting downwards, buoyancy acting upwards, and drag acting to oppose any external forces like wind or current. These forces are balanced when the boat is stationary.
Any force can. You "oppose" gravity every time you get out of bed and stand up, and every time you use the force of your leg muscles to walk upstairs.

There are many types of forces that oppose motion such as friction, drag and most universal, gravity.

Oppose
Opposition to legalized abortion caused many conservatives to oppose the ERA.
I think so
The demonstrators plan to oppose the new shopping mall. I oppose anything curtailing civil rights. Oppose means to hinder, counterbalance or resist.
Many things in the real world are not gravity. Japan, for example is not gravity. It is a country. Baby foxes, while very cute, are also not gravity, because they are animals. One other example of not gravity is pizza. Pizza is delicious, but it is not gravity. (Note that all of these things are affected by gravity, but they are not actually gravity itself.)There are no examples of 'not gravity' the way you mean it, because you can never escape gravity. There's no place you can go where gravity doesn't exist, and nothing you can use to insulate yourself from it.You can generate forces that oppose, cancel, and even exceed gravity. For example, you do that every time you use your leg muscles to walk up some stairs, and every time you use the engine in your car to drive up a hill. But you're only using energy from somewhere else to overpower gravity. You're not eliminating it.
The verb of opposition is oppose.
exsample- i oppose to your exsuation
