Can someone help on this question?

Question

This question is more prone of atheist. How can you prove to me that gravity exist? I cant see it working, but it just does? Lets see if you see the similarities.

You kinda missing the point. Its working but do you see gravity pulling you down. No. So it can be an asumption to GODD. You dont see him, but hes there.

Answer 1

You can do your own homework, and not try and fish out someone to help you under this category. You can also drop your school books over your head, if it hurts, that's gravity.

Answer 2

"...more prone of atheist"???

I presume in your opening sentence, you are stating that this is something you might consider asking an atheist?

The reply would probably be that One can see the physical EFFECTS of gravity; although gravity itself is invisible.

To which the person endeavouring to make a point about the existence of God would be in an unenviable situation:

You cannot SEE the effects of God - (Yes, all creation bears witness to a Creator; but the atheist will not readily be convinced of this as an argument of evidence.)

It can be proven, on earth, that gravity exists.
It cannot be physically proven, on earth, that God exists.

It is, of course, only a suggestion; but, I would not recommend using this approach in an attempt to reason with a determined atheist.

Answer 3

What do you mean you can't see it working? If it wasn't working you wouldn't be seeing anything at all, because we all would have been sucked out into space and killed a long time ago.
Drop something. There, now you see gravity working.
Weigh yourself. Now you see gravity working.
We know gravity exists because it has undeniable evidence proving it's existence. We CAN see it, we can feel it, we can measure it.

Answer 4

You can measure gravity. Gravity is defined as the force of attraction between two masses. Therefore, if you can measure a force between two masses, that is gravity.

It is not really defined much beyond that. There are some theories about how gravity is related to other forces, but there isn't much evidence to support them. However, gravity is defined well-enough that we can easily demonstrate it on various objects. We can make predictions, based on what we know, of how objects will act in proximity to each other.

Now, compare this to God. God isn't really well defined at all. It is just some supposed super being out there somewhere that you just have to have "faith" exists. There is no way to measure any effect of God. There is nothing that you can definitively attribute to God. However, you can show that religions are all man-made and people tend to create god myths and believe strongly in them. Therefore, the evidence strongly suggests that God is one of those man-made god myths. It fits what we know of human psychology.

Answer 5

You can't see stuff falling???? I could design thousands of controlled experiments that show that gravity is real and does work.

Look this is one of the funny things. Science really has no idea how gravity works. There are a few hypothesis. But nothing that is very concrete.

Answer 6

If you can handle It here is a brief explaination

Gravity is caused by Gravitons. A Graviton is a real particle at least as much as photon, gluon, and W, Z bosons. Graviton is massless and has spin 2 (all others above has spin 1. Also, elusive Higgs suppose to have spin 0) It means graviton mediate long range force like photon - this is why gravity falls like 1/ distant^2. Spin 2 means graviton has two polarization state, in other words two degrees of freedom. Direct observation of gravity wave hasn't been made yet, but there are ample indirect evidence of it (Taylo and Hulse were awarded Nobel for it.). Whenever there is a "oscillating" massive body gravitational wave is produced. It is just too weak to detect it yet, but work is currently undergoing. Like photon gravitons are their own anti particle. (Gluon case is different since they have colour charges.)


also, what exactly happens when objects are gravitationally attracted. i believe it is the exchange of gravitrons but if so, a)do they therefore travel faster that a photon, b) does the "production" of a gravitron reduce an objects mass or alter its energy level like it would during a chemical exchange of electrons?


Being massless graviton travels with speed of light (at lwast in theory.) Yes, production of graviton reduces objects mass. For example, if two bodies are rotating around each other they produce gravitational wave (graviton) They lose their orbital energy and falling into each other. The rate of which they fall exactly matched the amount of energy carried out by gravitational wave. This was measured at least for one well known example (Hulse-Taylor pulsa in Crab nebula. As I said earlier they got Nobel for this.) Also, theoretically it is well known that when massive body collapse gravitationally they loose ample amount of energy through gravitational wave (This was calculated in 60s and 70's by many people especially Richard Price in Utah.)


i suppose a gravitron can't have any mass or else we'de had a new particle creating gravity for them!
ohhh, and also, what relationship does the physical properties of a gravitron have in the space-time distortion=gravity theory?

Gratitons carries energy even though its proper mass is zero (exactly like photons.) Unlike photons though they interact each other (obviously because gravity is there whenever there is energy. Phtons doesn't interact each other because they don't carries charges.) . This is why Einstein's equation is non-linear. Graviton is a linear perturbation of background spacetime geometry. (so sometimes it is called "ripples on geometry")



Its just a paste of someone else explaining it, but with knowlege in the field it is the truth.

Answer 7

More importantly, why do Christians refuse to believe in gravity?

Gravity can be tested and proved through 100% accuracy. There are no tests that can prove the existence of your god.

Answer 8

(1) Hold a bowling ball 4 feet straight above your foot. Let go. Don't move your foot as it falls. The existence of gravity will soon be proven to you quite dramatically.

(2) Give God the finger, and tell Him where to go. He then COULD very easily prove His existence to you, but He probably won't. (Thankfully for you, in such a case.) Because God wants us to take His existence on faith.

For billions of people who believe in God (or even in gods, plural), the probability of the existence of a Higher Power is visible to us constantly. And especially to astronomers.

Answer 9

You, small mass on the surface of a giant rotating mass (with a satellite no less) zooming through space in an orbit around other giant masses can't think of a single piece of evidence for gravity.

Are you insane, or just high?

Answer 10

But... the "Theory of Gravity" is just a theory, it's not fact. So do you really know it exists?

The "Theory of Gravity" is a theory the same way as the "Theory of Evolution" is a theory.

Answer 11

Get naked, lay in bed and piss into the air... if anything pee lands on you or your bed, that will prove that gravity exist. You'll see it working even if you get some in your eyes.
