gravitation?

Question

since the earth is costantly attracted to the sunby the gravitation interaction,why does it not fall into the sun and burn up?.

Answer 1

Because it is in an orbit around the sun. The centrifugal force of the motion of the earth balances out the gravitational attraction of the sun. Another way to look a it: The earth IS falling toward the sun, but because of the lateral orbital motion, it moves away from the sun as fast as it is falling toward it.

Answer 2

gravity is the result of the earth falling into the sun because of a cascading conel effect of strings around the sun. The earth was also is traveling away from the sun as it tries to past by it. The earth was captured into the cone and now just goes forward within the cone. There is limited friction so the earth is almost spinning this way infinitely. When the sun grows old and expands the cone changes shape and the earths orbit will change. If the cone gets narrower the earth will fall into the sun if the cone gets wider the earth will break away from the cone shape. Either way kiss your tush good-bye

Answer 3

As the world gets fat we will finally crash towards the sun.
