Which force is mediated by fields?
Gravitational
Which force acts on mass?
Gravitational
Which force requires two or more objects?
Gravitational
Which force is always attractive?
Gravitational
Which force is mediated by electric and magnetic fields?
Electromagnetic
Which force is stronger? Gravitational or Electromagnetic
Electromagnetic
Which force can be attractive or repulsive?
Electromagnetic
If something is not moving, what force(s) are acting on it?
Gravitational and Electromagnetic
If something is not moving, why are both forces acting on it?
An object stays still when gravitational and electrostatic forces balance out, meaning no net force acts on it. Its energy remains stored as potential energy rather than converting kinetic energy.
What is the equation for gravitational force?
What is the equation for electromagnetic force?
