No. Wind is capable of blowing against gravity.

That's why eagles and hang gliderers look for thermal updrafts,

to lift them as they circle.

What is the force that acts against gravity?

The force that acts against gravity is called the normal force. It is exerted by a surface supporting an object, pushing upwards to prevent the object from falling due to gravity.


What is the main force to be dealt with in space?

Gravity and solar winds


What is the force that is working against the buoyant force?

The force working against the buoyant force is gravity. Gravity pulls objects downward, while the buoyant force pushes objects upward when they are immersed in a fluid.


What is the upward force that works against gravity?

Any upward force works against gravity,since they act in opposite directions.


What is the force that supports an object against gravity?

The force that supports an object against gravity is called the normal force. It is exerted by a surface to prevent objects from falling through it. The normal force equals the force of gravity acting on the object.


What is 1 force that buoyant works against?

the force of gravity


Against what other force does buoyancy act?

Buoyancy is the power to float or rise in a liquid and it acts against the force of gravity.


What is the force that acts against the force of buoyancy?

The force that acts against the force of buoyancy is gravity. Buoyancy is the upward force exerted by a fluid that opposes the weight of an object immersed in the fluid. Gravity, on the other hand, pulls objects downwards.


When is work said to be done against the force of gravity?

All bodies with mass are attracted to the Earth by gravity, so when a body is raised you must do work to raise it. This work is equal to force x height, if force is in Newtons and height in meters, the work is in units of Joules.


When you sit in a chair it exerts what force against you?

A normal force.


What force does buoyoncy ack against?

Gravity!


What is the minimum force to go against gravity?

The minimum force needed to go against gravity is equal to the force of gravity acting on the object, which is the object's weight. This force can be calculated using the formula F = m*g, where F is the force, m is the mass of the object, and g is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately 9.8 m/s^2 on Earth).
