Property of water that allows it to travel against the force of gravity?

There is no such "property of water". ANY substance, gas, liquid, object, solid, or mass
travels vertically upward ... "against the force of gravity" ... when a force greater than its
weight acts on it in the upward direction. The statement applies to hot air, molasses, water,
automobiles, airplanes, beach balls in Swimming Pools, and people with leg muscles.

Why does a bus going uphill travel more-slowly than going?
It requires extra power to go uphill, against the pull of gravity.
How can you overcome gravity by leaving earth?
More acceleration against the gravity like rocket does....
Can water travel upwards?
water cannot travel upwards, because 1) gravity 2) there is a property of water that does not allow it to flow upwards Water can move upwards by capillary action, forced upwards by a pump or natural geyser, it can be carried upwards and can rise in the form of steam or vapour.
Does gravity travel backwards?
If it did, nobody would ever deuce their shorts.
What are the factors which determine the distance that a projectile will travel?
gravity - velocity - windage - obstructions
How do asteroids travel?
How does gravity affect space exploration?
"Gravity is a distortion in the Space-Time Continuum" -Albert Einstein...
What property of water makes it move upward from the roots?
because of water's cohesion property, which is its ability to stick to itself and it adhesion property, which mean that water can stick to other material, it can travel upward in a plant. also, the plant's tube is very small, which allow water to overcome gravity and travel upward.
What makes water travel up in a tree?
The adhesion property of water and diffusion allows water to travel upwards, but xylems are the "pipes" that carry that water up and throughout the plant.
How do winds travel?
The wind travel by gravity.
Why does a bus going uphill travel more-slowly than going?
It requires extra power to go uphill, against the pull of gravity.
How do gravity waves travel through the vacuum of space?
Gravity waves travel as small distortions in space and time.
Does gravity travel at speed of light?
Gravity wave do, so yes.
Do snails travel faster uphill or downhill?
Honestly I don't have any facts to back this up. but I believe that snails travel faster downhill due to the fact that gravity is assisting them. Considering the method of which they travel ( by sliding over slime ) I would think you could move faster downhill as you would not have to push against gravity to move up.
How do astronauts travel in space and escape earths atmosphere?
Astronauts travel in space and escape earth's atmosphere by wearing gravity resistant suits and traveling to outer space in a space shuttle that is insulated against the elements.
Why does a space shuttle have to travel so fast?
Space shuttles must travel at 11km/s so that they can escape the force of gravity. the force of gravity is approximately 9.81. If you don't travel at a greater speed than the force of gravity, the rocket will not launch.
What makes a rubber band travel?
gravity makes a rubber band travel
