For it is too weak. The earth is more than a few million times the mass of us, and yet the acceleration is still only like 9.8m/s2. So we would never be able to feel the gravitational pull between people.

Why we don't notice the force of gravity between ourselves and other objects around us?

We do notice the force of gravity between ourselves and other objects around us, but we are accustomed to it and it is relatively weak compared to other forces in everyday life. We only really feel the effects of gravity when there is a significant change, like falling from a height or being in a situation with zero gravity.


Does gravity act on non-matter?

Yes, it does. Another opinion: No it doesn't. The formula for the force of gravity involves masses and distance. There is no gravitational force where there is no mass, like, for example between ideas, or between sounds. I notice that the question offers no guidance as to what "non-matter" is.


Why don't you usually notice electric forces between a object?

Electric forces between objects are typically very weak compared to other forces, such as gravity or friction. Additionally, objects often contain equal numbers of positive and negative charges which cancel each other out, resulting in no net electric force. As a result, the effect of electric forces between everyday objects is usually negligible.


Why don't we notice a different between mass and weight on earth?

Because the acceleration of gravity is almost precisely the same anywhere on earth. Weight is the force of gravity on a mass. However, if you have extremely sensitive equipment, you can detect the different weight of a given mass at different locations.


Can gravity pull two objects together?

Yes, gravity will pull any two objects together in the absence of other forces. We don't notice this happening in everyday life because other forces such as friction are much bigger and mask the effects.

Why don't we notice a difference between mass and weight on earth?

We don't notice a difference between mass and weight on Earth because the acceleration due to gravity is constant on the surface of the Earth. Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass, so as long as the acceleration due to gravity remains constant, the weight of an object will be proportional to its mass.

What is the weakest force acting between Earth and the Sun?

Gravity. Even though we notice the effect of gravity every day it is the weakest of the fundamental forces. However you could argue that the strong nuclear force is the weakest acting between these two bodies, because they are too far away from each other for this force to act.


Why don't we notice a difference between mass and and weight on Earth?

Because gravity is relatively constant anywhere on Earth's surface.

Does the size of a planet effect your throwing ability?

YES! the size of the planet does effect your throwing ability! If you get each planets' gravity number then you will notice that the smaller the planet the less gravity force/attraction it will have. If you go to Jupiter and throw a football the gravity will pull down on the football faster and make your throw much shorter than it would on Earth because Jupiter has a bigger gravity number then Earth.


Why does the phases of the moon effect us?

if we are near the full side of the moon, the temperature will drop. If you notice, when we have anew moon, it's a bit warmer. In a word, magnetism. (Gravity)


Where on earth is the pull of gravity the least?

The pull of gravity depends on the mass of the two objects attracted to one another, and the distance between them. The greater the distance between the two objects, the weaker the pull of gravity. For that reason gravity is strongest at low elevations (closer to the center of mass of the earth) and weakest at high ones (farther from the center of mass), although the difference is essentially impossible to notice.


Why dont you notice the force of gravity between most objects on the Earth?

Because the objects are tiny compared with the Earth, the comparative gravitational force is very small.


When do you notice the force of gravity?

When there is that force that pulls downward. Example, when you climb a mountain. You will fell that there is that gravity pulling downward.
