The design of the building itself. They are made so that winds (up to a certain point, normally determined by measurements and histories of the maximum windspeeds) will not be able to destabilise the structure.

What is the force that keeps a book falling after it is released?

The force that keeps a book falling after it is released is gravity. Gravity is the attractive force between two objects with mass and it pulls the book towards the Earth.


What keeps the window from exploding during a strong windstorm?

Windows are made of materials that can withstand high winds, such as tempered or laminated glass. Additionally, the window frames are securely attached to the structure of the building to provide extra stability and prevent the window from blowing out during a strong windstorm.


What force keeps molecules in a fluid together, including the weak electromagnetic and strong nuclear forces?

The force that keeps molecules in a fluid together is a combination of weak electromagnetic and strong nuclear forces.


What keeps and inflated balloon from falling down if you rub it against your hair and place it against the wall?

When you rub a balloon against your hair, it becomes negatively charged due to the transfer of electrons. This negative charge creates an electrostatic force between the balloon and the wall, causing it to stick. The force between the negatively charged balloon and the neutrally charged wall is strong enough to counteract the force of gravity and keep the balloon from falling.


Why doesn't gravity make you fall through the floor?

Gravity pulls you downward, but the floor exerts an equal and opposite force to support your weight and prevent you from falling through. This balancing act is known as normal force, which keeps you in place on the surface of the floor.
