First of all, it depends on the escape velocity and the power measure of gravitational force. Second, isn't it pretty obvious to tell? Well, since you're asking, think of a ball of mass, supposedly earth or any other planet you know of, lets go with earth. If you were to jump, you fall back towards the ground, that's an effect of it, you falling back down is because the gravity is pushing you to standable landscape. if earth was bigger, with the same amount of gravitational force, the escape velocity would be less, meaning the power of how hard the gravitational force acted when you were on a smaller mass, would act less upon you, so that's how people can bounce around like movies on the moon.

1- It limits mountain size to about 9km {Everest is 8.84km} due to the shear stress of rock having certain limits. On Mars there is a mountain {Mt.Olympus Mons} which is 29km high [3 times taller]. Of course the rock is similar so the reason is that the gravity is less on Mars, only 38% of Earth's 9.8 = 3.8 approx. 2- It causes the Moon to orbit us which then causes the tides to flow. Affect/Effect.

gravity provides a force on all massive object dependent on their own mass and the masses of all object 'near' them of the order F=GM1M2/R2 where F and R are vectors. Since Force is also dependent on mass gravitation forces are usually depicted as acceleration independent of mass.

a= GM1/R2

So just treat gravity as any other force and add it vectorially.

Why and How gravity is, is still a scientific mystery.

some of the effects on gravity on earth is that you don't stay jumping for to long in the air and you don't float. Gravity pulls the atmosphere towards earth. Gravity keeps earth on it's axis and orbit.

The number one effect on gravitational force on earth is to hold us down on earth. Without gravity you can not breath. Without gravity inertia would keep you going without control ,without gravity life would be much different even some different kinds of energy is created from gravity. Without gravity the Earth would be pulled into the sun. Moons and planets would collide.

Is there any effect of gravity on atomicforces?

there is no effect of gravity on atomic forces because gravity is very very weak than the atomic forces(Gravitational Force = 10-38 Atomic forces, Weak=10-13 Strong=1).


What is the effect gravity has on objects of unequal forces?

It isn't clear what you mean by "objects of unequal forces". Gravity exerts a force on objects.


What forces effect a car rolling down an inclined plane?

gravity and friction


What is gravity if it is not a force?

Gravity really is one of the four main forces of the Universe. gravity is an effect and not the cause of anything, no gravitation's, no gravity waves, none of it. gravity is a dynamic effect. the acceleration of the underlying for of energy focused to the center of a mass. there is no separate force called gravity, just a dynamic effect we call 'gravity'


What effect does gravity have on objects?

Gravity causes forces that attract every two objects in the universe toward each other.


What are some forces that effect the path of the ball?

Gravity, air resistance, force produced by the spinning of the ball.


How does distance affect gravity?

Gravitational forces are inversely proportional to the square of the distance separating the gravitating bodies.


Why does gravity affect speed?

Because the effect of gravity is to cause forces between every two objects that have mass, and force on an object generally affects its speed.


How does shape and air resistance can effect the laws of gravity?

It doesn't. The force of gravity depends on the masses involved, and their distance. However, air resistance can introduce other forces, that counteract the force of gravity.


When does gravity become the stronger force with volcanos?

Gravity is the strongest force in the universe. Not because other forces are not more powerful, but because gravity reaches throughout the universe. Volcanoes really have very little effect on gravity.


How doesn't a vertical force effect a horizontal motion?

You need to know about gravity, forces, velocity, acceleration, and vector.


Does gravity have an effect on a magnet?

No. They are two seperate forces. (But their actions on an object may add or subtract from each other.)
