How fast does gravity move?

Question

I already know the answer, I just want to see if anybody else does.

If this helped you in anyway, I would appreciate a star.

Answer 1

Um... you mean the *effects* of gravity?  It moves at the speed of light. So, if the sun were suddenly "beamed" someplace else, nothing on Earth would change for about 8.3 minutes, then, *finally*, we'd see that the sun was *gone*.  But, for that 8.3 minutes, Earth would continue to orbit the spot where the sun was, until space finally "unwarped" due to the sun's sudden departure.  

Answer 2

9.8 m/s

Answer 3

Gravity is not an object that can move.   Gravitity is the universal force of attraction betweeen all masses in the universe.   Masses can move in response to gravity. But graavity itself doesn't move.  You may be confusing gravity with gravitational waves which theoretically move but have never been detected.

Answer 4

u see that.... it just moved.

Answer 5

9.8 meters per second per second

Answer 6

  Gravity travels at the speed of light

Answer 7

It is thought that gravity waves move at the speed of light, but that has not been experimentally verified.

Answer 8

zero

Answer 9

Einstein proved that the force of gravity is transmitted at the speed of light.  

Answer 10

gravity doesn't move, so apparently you don't actually know.  its a force, not a motion.  But on earth, it pulls at 9.8 meters per second squared.  That is, it makes falling objects accelerate towards the ground at 9.8 meters per second per second.  This rate varies from planet to planet, and it is also different on the moon than it is on Earth. For a general rule, the larger the planet, the larger the force of gravity is

Answer 11

Gravitational waves move at the speed of light.  This was shown by the Theory of General Relativity.

The answer of 9.8 m^2/second is the acceleration at the earth's surface of an object moved only by gravitational attraction of the earth.

Answer 12

Gravity travels at the speed of light - 670,615,343 miles per hour, however,the speed of light is variable when the light is not moving through a vacuum.
