How does gravity effect forces?

Answer 1

First of all, it depends on the escape velocity and the power measure of gravitational force. Second, isn't it pretty obvious to tell? Well, since you're asking, think of a ball of mass, supposedly earth or any other planet you know of, lets go with earth. If you were to jump, you fall back towards the ground, that's an effect of it, you falling back down is because the gravity is pushing you to standable landscape. if earth was bigger, with the same amount of gravitational force, the escape velocity would be less, meaning the power of how hard the gravitational force acted when you were on a smaller mass, would act less upon you, so that's how people can bounce around like movies on the moon.

Answer 2

1- It limits mountain size to about 9km {Everest is 8.84km} due to the shear stress of rock having certain limits. On Mars there is a mountain {Mt.Olympus Mons} which is 29km high [3 times taller]. Of course the rock is similar so the reason is that the gravity is less on Mars, only 38% of Earth's 9.8 = 3.8 approx. 2- It causes the Moon to orbit us which then causes the tides to flow. Affect/Effect.

Answer 3

gravity provides a force on all massive object dependent on their own mass and the masses of all object 'near' them of the order F=GM1M2/R2 where F and R are vectors. Since Force is also dependent on mass gravitation forces are usually depicted as acceleration independent of mass.

a= GM1/R2

So just treat gravity as any other force and add it vectorially.

Why and How gravity is, is still a scientific mystery.

Answer 4

some of the effects on gravity on earth is that you don't stay jumping for to long in the air and you don't float. Gravity pulls the atmosphere towards earth. Gravity keeps earth on it's axis and orbit.

Answer 5

The number one effect on gravitational force on earth is to hold us down on earth. Without gravity you can not breath. Without gravity inertia would keep you going without control ,without gravity life would be much different even some different kinds of energy is created from gravity. Without gravity the Earth would be pulled into the sun. Moons and planets would collide.

Answer 6

Gravity is a fundamental force that attracts objects with mass towards each other. It affects all forces acting on objects by adding a weight component to them. For example, when an object is lifted against gravity, more force is required to overcome its weight.
