Q. Which force is acting on a falling leaves?
gravity
Q. What forces act on a falling object?
Describe the forces acting on an object on earth falling through the air, and how they change from when the object is first released into the air leading to terminal velocity. The two forces acting on the object are weight due to gravity pulling the object towards earth, and drag resisting this motion.

Q. Is gravity stronger than electromagnetic force?
Although the electromagnetic force is far stronger than gravity, it tends to cancel itself out within large objects, so over large (astronomical) distances gravity tends to be the dominant force, and is responsible for holding together the large scale structures in the universe, such as planets, stars, and galaxies.
Q. Is gravity an electromagnetic force?
Gravity is a weak force, but has only one sign of charge. Electromagnetism is much stronger, but comes in two opposing signs of charge. Electromagnetic waves, meanwhile, are typically generated by small movements of charge pairs within objects, and have wavelengths much smaller than the objects themselves.
Q. What are the 4 fundamental forces in the universe?
There are four fundamental forces at work in the universe: the strong force, the weak force, the electromagnetic force, and the gravitational force.
Q. What is the strongest nuclear force?
The Strong Nuclear Force (also referred to as the strong force) is one of the four basic forces in nature (the others being gravity, the electromagnetic force, and the weak nuclear force). As its name implies, it is the strongest of the four.
Q. Which is the strongest of the four fundamental forces?
strong nuclear force
Q. Which fundamental force is always attractive?
Gravitational Force
Q. How can we make a force stronger or weaker?
The strength of the electric force between two charged objects depends on the size of the charges and the distance between objects. The greater the charge, the stronger the force; the greater the distance between the objects, the weaker the force between them.
Q. How strong is the strong force?
As its name suggests, the strong force is the strongest—it’s 100 times stronger than the electromagnetic force (which binds electrons into atoms), 10,000 times stronger than the weak force (which governs radioactive decay), and a hundred million million million million million million (1039) times stronger than gravity …
Q. Why is the strong force so strong?
The strong force holds together quarks, the fundamental particles that make up the protons and neutrons of the atomic nucleus, and further holds together protons and neutrons to form atomic nuclei. As such it is responsible for the underlying stability of matter.
Q. Can the strong force be repulsive?
The nuclear force is powerfully attractive between nucleons at distances of about 1 femtometre (fm, or 1.0 × 10−15 metres), but it rapidly decreases to insignificance at distances beyond about 2.5 fm. At distances less than 0.7 fm, the nuclear force becomes repulsive.
