What are the characteristics of gravity?

Answer 1

The nature of gravity is that a pair of equal attracting forces exist between every pair of masses, whose strength depends on the product of the masses and the distance between their centers..

Answer 2

Contrary to what many people believe, gravity is not caused by the rotation of the Earth. Gravity appears to be a universal property of matter which makes all objects attract one another. So gravity makes the Sun attract the Earth and the Earth attract its Moon. Gravity also makes the Moon attract the oceans on the surface of the Earth, making the tides.

The main reason a moon doesn't crash into its host planet and a planet doesn't crash into its local sun is this: each body is moving around its orbit at a speed that is just fast enough to produce an "outward" force that exactly balances-out the "inward" force of gravity which acts between the two bodies.

(Sorry. Wrong. balanced forces result in straight-line motion, and motion in a curved path does not produce an outward force. Try again.)

Another explanation

How does gravity work? How does magnetism work?

Energy can not be created or destroyed. To have energy you must have substance. The substance that causes gravity flows through the 'empty' space inside and in between all atomic particles. Collisions in between matter and the substance that causes gravity (aether) are infrequent, if not impossible.

It is not visible because light does not affect it, sort of how light passes through water. You can not feel it because it is more fluid than any gas. You can see it in solar flares, or when you pick iron pyrite out of the sand with a magnet and watch the iron dance on top of a paper plate while you hold the magnet underneath. A magnetic field is a constant supply of energy that is not potential, but creates kinetic force. Since there is kinetic response without any physical exchange, there must be substance. I call it spirit (wow did I just prove that divinity exists in the universe as a monist state?).

Event horizon is caused by reverse buoyancy effect. A black hole spinning very fast has a close undertow, and when something gets close enough, it is swallowed up. The more mass (atomic particles) an object has, the greater the effect it will have on the aether. Aether moves from positive to negative, or top to bottom, around and around, in and out. This explains why some galaxies have a jet effect. It effects metal (magnetism) because metal has shared electrons. Shared electrons allow current to flow, which explains why power sources can cause phenomena. It is effected by the motion of electrons. Neural pathways also effect this substance, this is why a shark can sense if an organism is living or dead from feet away. The closer to the center of an object you become, the higher the density of mater, and of aether. The higher the pressure of matter, and aether. Reverse buoyancy occurs, causing objects with mass to fall.

Furthermore, an object with less mass is held in orbit by an object with more mass because the larger object has a greater effect on the aether. Velocity also does effect orbit though, this is why the moon is not floating over the same area of the Earth all the time. It is relative.

Suggestion from an impartial observer: Use the first answer for information,

and the second answer for entertainment.

Answer 3

Gravity is a natural force that attracts objects with mass towards each other. It is proportional to the mass of the objects and decreases with distance. Gravity is responsible for keeping planets in orbit around stars and objects on Earth's surface.

Answer 4

from the greek word PHYSIKOS which means ''natural'' and PHYSIS MEANING ''nature''.

Answer 5

The force of gravity is greater for objects with more mass.

Gravity is a natural force that causes pairs of objects to be pulled together.

Answer 6
