Question

Gravity makes things fall, but how does it make the moon go round the earth or the planet orbit the sun?

Answer 1

❤❤ Here it is...❤❤

✌ Bcz a/c to Newton's 3rd law of motion the force of action and reaction are always equal and opposite so when Earth attracts the moon with a certain gravitational force on the Moon attracts the earth with an equal and opposite gravitational force..

So it make the moon go round the earth or the planet orbit the sun.

Just as an object released from a height falls to the ground due to gravity, the Moon is also falling towards the ground due to gravity.


The only difference is that it is also moving so fast in the forward direction that as it falls, the ground curves away, and it never reaches the ground.


If a Cannon ball is dropped from a height, it would fall straight down due to gravity. If the same cannon ball is fired from a gun from a height of 10m, the bullet will fall to the ground at a certain distance. If the gun is taken to a height of 1000 metres, the cannon ball will hit the ground at a much greater distance. Imagine firing a cannon ball with such force and from such a height that is should hit the ground at a distance of more than 7000 km. But at that distance it will never hit the ground because the Earth is spherical and the ground curves away.

So the cannon ball will keep falling and will keep going around the earth in orbit.

This is what happens with the moon and all artificial satellite and spacecraft in the Earth's orbit.


So it is the same gravity that makes things fall to the ground and also makes the moon go round the Earth and the planets go round the sun.
