  1. Again, when you throw the stone across a river or across the field, the force you put into it with your own strength is stronger than the force of gravity, but since the force you put into the stone doesn't posses perpetual motion, it will slow down obviously and fall to the ground because gravity's strength has now overcome the lossed energy you put into the stone.. All the while gravity was present, it's just when you release the stone the energy is greater than gravity..
  2. After thinking my question over, I easily answered it myself... Every object has a specific maximum velocity, UNLESS some other form of energy is put into it.. Therefore higher gravity (more power) would cause a higher maximum velocity..
  3. I myself do not know the answer, being this is the first night I've ever been interested in physics and space in general, I shouldn't.. BTW, I'm new to the forum.. But I don't feel his questions on light or gravity, I'm not sure if it's an avoidance of the question or you're just not understanding it.. Let me rephrase if I'm understanding correctly... Does brighter light move at a faster pace than dimmer, less powerful light?? And for the gravity question.. In two different gravitational scenarios, You have object (1) , considering objects have a maximum velocity we'll say the distance between the two points (A) and (B) would end before maximum velocity is reached.. Ok, on Earth object (1) is dropped from a resting position from point (A) to (B) and the same expirement is performed on the Moon, the Moon being the only variable.. Would the stronger gravitational pull create a higher velocity in object (1) between points (A) and (B).. While typing this I've come up with a question of my own... Does the strength of gravitational pull determine an objects maximum velocity??? If I sound terribly uneducated, my schooling ended in the 9th grade. Thanks
