So the EM repulsion between your electrons and those in your chair provide a resistance force balanced with the force you experience due to gravity

If it was more you'd find yourself floating upwards, if it was less the chair would break

Oh ok makes alot more sense when you put it that way

Indeed, that's the established theory. When resolving mechanical problems on earth, there's usually a 'resistance' component involved. As stuff isn't falling through the surface of the earth

So when something, for example, floats on water, the buoyancy force is the dominant resistance force to gravity, stopping the object from sinking further

From the objects point of view it feels no net force, as gravity and the resistance force are balanced

When it comes to buoyancy, the buoyancy force is dependant on the volume of medium (e.g. water) displaced by an object. A dence object, like a bowling ball, displaces less mass of water than it's own mass. Therefore the buoyancy force would be less than gravity. So it will sink until something balances out the forces (such as hitting the seabed)

An aircraft carrier, though more massive than the bowling ball, will displace a greater mass of water than it's own mass. In this case the buoyancy force will be sufficient to balance gravity.

Last I checked the standard bowling ball is mostly cork so in some cases floats but that's nit picking

You can then work out how much of the carrier should be submerged in order to balance forces but it's very late/early so don't want to give the wrong information accidently

Well, a granite boulder then. But yeah.

So essentially no gravity needed just resistance holding things up instead

Air has low resistance so most stuff falls through

Ah see that's the thing. The resistance force is /resisting/ gravity

In the flat Earth model I mean

Without gravity there'd be no force to propel things in a certain direction.

Ohhh yes sorry

Afaik yes from those I've spoken to, though I can't speak for those in this server (heck I'm a glober anyway so what do I know?)

More than I do apparently

I'm not really a glober or a flat earther but I lean more towards glober

It's good to be curious.

I need to go to bed but if you have any more questions feel free to message me and I'll answer them tomorrow

Alrighty thanks

Ninis

No worries, take care

You too

guys the earth is flat

right

theres a humongous ice wall surrounding the earth

and NASA IS FAKE!!!

its a hollywood based fake image sourcee!!!!

do you agree with me @California Nightmare 3.0

nasa is fake right

No

whatt??

you're crazy dude

nasa is fake

and they're fukll of lying communists

like bernie

and warren
