Essays on Gravity

Introduction The earth is flat, that’s what people thought before the Greek geographer Eratosthenes proposed the idea that the earth was round. People have also thought the earth was the center of our solar system but that was debunked by copernicus. There are also many…

Friction is, by way of definition, the resistance to movement. The significance of this resistance is a feature of the materials, geometries and surface functions of the our bodies in contact, as well as the operating conditions and surroundings. it’s miles regularly proper to reduce…

The interest in space and space travel increases with the influence of the films taken, which in turn leads to the question of how applicable the concepts in such films are. In this article, let’s take a look at whether the artificial gravity spacecraft mentioned…

Introduction As Neil Armstrong once said “Mystery creates wonder and wonder is the basis of man’s desire to understand”. The great unknown of space travel has intrigued and captivated people for generations and in recent years’ development in technologies have allowed more and more exploration…

Everything in our daily lives involves physics, everyone uses basic physics concepts to navigate everyday life, and it interacts our daily life actions from the time we wake till time we go to bed. Physics governs our life when understandings the physical world laws and…

‘Gravity’ directed by Alfanso Cuaron starring Sandra Bullock and George Clooney in the title roles is hugely heralded as one of the most path breaking movies of recent times in terms of technological advancement in film making and the zest to attempt an entirely humane…

The interesting concept of gravitational waves has been known for over 100 years, but it was just recently detected, and it is incredibly important to our lives. Gravitational waves in outer space are invisible ‘ripples,’ or waves caused by very violent and energetic events in…

Drop an ant and an elephant from the Eiffel Tower. The ant lands softly and survives. The elephant goes splat and ruins the day of any nearby tourists. An ant can lift a multiple of its own weight. An elephant can lift only a fraction…

Introduction Hydrostatic Pressure Hydrostatic pressure is a pressure exerted by fluid from any directions at equilibrium with the presence of gravitational force. Based on this concept,it is learnt that the pressure increases proportionally with the depth/height of the fluid as the weight of fluid exerted…

Why Do We Need Gravity? The role of gravity is much more than just preventing us from floating, it helps the human body to grow and develop. It makes the muscles and bones work hard, keeping them intact. It keeps our body functions running. Effects…
