The MASS of an object is what gives us the 'force' to keep us on the ground. But the 'force' is what is 'not fully understood'. I believe since we are electrical, and the Earth uses magnetism in its structure, we may be like magnets. I believe from what I read certain electrical activity affects our bodies. It is blamed for many 'ill' effects on us. So why would it not be magnetism that holds us on the ground? Seems logical to me anyways..IMO Living has taught me one thing; nothing is certain...except salvation through Jesus Christ! |

Next.... ------------------------------ You are correct sir! But I think I see where OP is going...allow me to rephrase his question... How does gravity hold the oceans to the globe but not hydrogen or helium? Last Edited by Mental Case on 12/07/2019 11:37 PM If I am going to be damned...I am going to be damned for who I really am! |

Gravity is strong enough to hold water miles deep to a circular object, but a butterfly has no problem resisting it with its tiny wings. Quoting: Carl Sagan 78004686 Water weighs 8 pounds per gallon. How much does a butterfly weigh? A pound of butterflies is same as a pound of iron ..... |

How does gravity hold the oceans to the globe but not hydrogen or helium? Hydrogen and helium are MUCH less dense than water. Thus they exist at different altitudes. Water at the bottom as its the heaviest. Then you have various layers in the atmosphere. Whic is why they use helium ballons to go to the edge of space. Its the lightest gas. Much the same as if you put ordinary air in a glass ball and released it from the ocean floor. It would rise to its own density level..aka...the surface. Helium being a very light gas only exists in the ulper layers of the atmosphere. Which is why helium ballons always end up there...at their own density level. Is that better? |
