Do really big things that have no rotation and no magnetic field still hav gravity?

Question

not based on spacetime curvature

Answer 1

EVERYTHING in this universe has gravity, from the most massive black hole to the smallest hydrogen atom. Gravity has nothing to do with magnetism or rotation; it is inherent in ALL matter.

Answer 2

Yes. Gravity is a function of density, not magnetism nor motion.

Answer 3

The only component an object needs to have gravity is mass.

Answer 4

Yes, and small things too. All matter has gravity in proportion to its mass. With a little care, you can demonstrate this yourself: http://www.fourmilab.ch/gravitation/foob...

Answer 5

Yes, and small things too. Gravity has nothing at all to do with either rotation or magnetism.

Answer 6

Anything made of matter has a gravitational field.  That includes you.

Answer 7

gravity isn't in magnetism or rotation... but you'll find most all larger bodies that have mass (from moons to supermassive black holes) and gravity, also have a rotation or magnetic field to them, which would make it seem as if something has to have a magnetic field or rotation to have gravity, but that is totally misleading.

Answer 8

Everything with mass produces gravity, even you.  Of course our mass is so small it would be nearly impossible to measure the gravity created while being in Earths gravity and the gravitational pull of other stars and planets.

Answer 9

yes, any object that has mass has a gravitational attraction to it.  the force is usually so small that it is unnoticed, unless you're talking about something the size of planets.  gravity is a property of mass, not rotation or magnetism.

Answer 10

All things in the unviverse cause gravity, including gravity itself! Before Einstein, no one knew what caused gravity. But when he hit the scene, one of the greatest theories ever was released. General Relativity is an extremely complicated non-linear geometric formulation of gravity. It is one of the most useful tools in physics to date. To fully understand General Relativity you would need an extremely high knowledge of math and physics. But one simple thing can be learned from it with a basic concept of math. Gravity is caused by a warping and curving of spacetime. ALL energy and mass causes this warping. An object does not have to be spinning to cause gravity, or have a magnetic field. A very interesting thing to ponder is magnetic fields themselves have gravity!
