This is the law of gravitation-two masses m and M attract each other, but the earth is so much bigger than anything built or moving on it, that such objects are attracted to the earth, without the earth being noticeably attracted to the objects. Therefore all objects are attracted to the earth and would if in freefall be accelerated at the rate of 9.81 meters/sec2 or 32.2 ft/sec2. towards the earth.

What happens to energy that the ground absorbs in the form of visible sunlight?
It is returned upward in the form of infrared light.
What non living thing that require energy?
everything requires energy. It takes energy to form chemical bonds, it takes energy to break them. Everything has kinetic or potential energy. Cars, tides, earth's rotation, wind, sunlight, etc etc.
Can energy change form and why?
energy can change form. it can change from kinetic to potential, or kinetic into heat or vise versa. the reason why is because you start out with a type of energy, such as being still and then moving. in that case you are going from potential to kinetic. energy can neither be created nor destroyed. there is always energy in everything you do such as kicking a soccer ball which creates heat on the ground, and then kinetic, and then {finally} sound energy. i might not of answered your question exactly how you wanted it to be answered...sorry for the inconvenience.Etcgirl :)
Where is mechanical energy found?
Mechanical energy is the most familiar form of energy. Everything, living and nonliving, that moves and has any type of motion is using mechanical energy.
An atom absorbs energy as its electron?
An electron in the ground state does absorb energy in form of photons or other electromagnetic radiations.
The form of energy that keeps everything on the ground?
The force of gravity
Can matter give energy?
yes because everything has matter and everything gives off some form of energy.
What form of energy is created by water heated underneath the ground?
Geothermal energy
Can energy Chang form?
Yes. Everything we do changes it.
What does a gravitatinal field affect?
A gravitational field affects everything that has energy (or mass, but mass is a form of energy). As such it affects virtually everything.
What in the world am I on?
Everything is energy down to its simplest form. Therefore, you are currently on energy itself, and made out of it.
What happens to energy that the ground absorbs in the form of visible sunlight?
It is returned upward in the form of infrared light.
When a electron returns to its stable or ground state is emits?
When an electron returns to its ground state it emits energy in the form of light.
What form of energy does an elevator have?
If it is above a chosen reference level (e.g., ground level), it has potential energy. While it is moving, it has kinetic energy.
What is living right now?
Everything is energy in it's simplest form. Therefore everything is living in real time, in this experience.
What non living thing that require energy?
everything requires energy. It takes energy to form chemical bonds, it takes energy to break them. Everything has kinetic or potential energy. Cars, tides, earth's rotation, wind, sunlight, etc etc.
What kind of energy powers photosynthesis?
solar energy
