The sitting rock has force, you said it yourself; weight. You can easily calculate the force applied by the air on the rock you've thrown. If that was the only force applied, you could be throwing rocks miles away. What's your explanation as to why the rock falls back to the ground so quickly?

Machines using earth's gravitational force already exist. Hydroelectric dams and tidal generators use gravity to generate electricity.

Dont bother :lol:

you admit you're just a troll who slanders and flames and sends death threat and lies

and jsp does nothing to warn you. You are the cancer of Jsp. What happened to your other troll account - Nekosama?

Stick to your cartoon fantasies, ok?

From wiki:

Gravitas was one of the Roman virtues,[1] along with pietas, dignitas, and virtus, that were particularly appreciated in leaders. Evidence shows that it was most likely influenced by the Greek virtue of arête. It may be translated variously as weight, seriousness, dignity, and importance and connotes a certain substance or depth of personality.

Weight is not a force, neither is displacement - despite your faith. Believe in gravity has nothing to do with understanding the concept of grabbity, but nice try at a typical straw man fallacy.

you're just bad at the internet

INTRODUCTORY PHYSICS TIME!

An object that is moving with you is stationary from your perspective, that is the distance between you and the object is a fixed value, and the direction from you to the object is a fixed value.

An object that is moving from your perspective has a changing distance. A change in distance over time is what we call velocity. When the distance between you and the object is unchanging the velocity is zero.

In order for an object that is stationary from your perspective to begin moving requires the velocity to change from zero, to a positive value (it is moving away from you) or a negative value (it is moving towards you). A name for a changing of velocity over time is acceleration.

In order to accelerate something it has to be pushed. The "push" results in an acceleration. How much it accelerates the object is a measure of how much force was applied by that push. More massive objects tend to resist acceleration, so we say that Force equals Mass times Acceleration.

One consequence of this is that you can have forces in multiple directions. If you have two forces of equal values pushing in opposite directions no acceleration will happen. This is why when something is on the ground it isn't moving, even though it is being pushed towards the ground. The ground is exerting an equal and opposite force to the force that keeps you on the ground.

thanks for posting a link to Archimedes' principle

Archimedes' principle is named after Archimedes of Syracuse, who first discovered this law in 212 B.C.[4] For objects, floating and sunken, and in gases as well as liquids (i.e. a fluid), Archimedes' principle may be stated thus in terms of forces:

Any object, wholly or partially immersed in a fluid, is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object

— with the clarifications that for a sunken object the volume of displaced fluid is the volume of the object, and for a floating object on a liquid, the weight of the displaced liquid is the weight of the object.

More tersely: Buoyancy = weight of displaced fluid.

Nowhere does it mention your grabbity relegion. If it was an actual force - it would always be there, not appear magically to solve your bias.

buoyancy is not a force - its just another case of an object's total density being less dense than the medium it exists in. So Its not the object itself - its the object compared to the medium it exist in. Thats why ships sink when you shoot a torpedo in them - dahh

In physics, buoyancy (/ˈbɔɪənsi, -əntsi, ˈbuːjənsi, -jəntsi/)[1][2] or upthrust, is an upward force exerted by a fluid that opposes the weight of an immersed object.

Welcome back best buddy.

Lets see how long it takes to goad you into another temp ban. Gl.

Energy = Force x Distance

The distance you can allow something to move is limited by the ground, so it's not an infinite source of power :(

ah no - if were whipping around the galaxy at 500,000 mph like your model says

hey, why doesnt the iss need to account for that - i guess the the mythamagicians forget to add that one.

yeah buddy, cmon the mods can only close their eyes and pretend to be blind for so long.

How all the sheeple saw you getting away with insulting, slandering and flaming 100s of times and the mods doing nothing.

Keep up the good work on socially inspiring the younger generation.

This is why a recent survey of 18-24 years old put Flat Earth in the 33%, you cant kill a good idea, though you tried.

Aslo - displacement is not a force - gravity and buoyancy are what you would call a pseudo force - its just your misplaced faith and misunderstanding of the state relegion.
