If Sun's magnetic field is so high, Why earth and other planets are not crashing on Sun?

If Sun's magnetic field is so high, Why earth and other planets are not attracted towards Sun?|||You've definitely confused magnetism for gravity.





One misconception is that earth and the other planets are falling towards the sun but because of our distance we fall continuously around it. This is NOT the case.





In truth the Earth, earth as well as the other planets maintain a constant velocity sideways (in a straight line parallel) to the Sun's equator (But away from the Sun). For every centimeter (cm) that the earth moves away from the Sun, the Sun's gravity pulls it a cm back in a sort of saw tooth fashion (|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\) and as a result smooths the straight line into an elliptical path around the Sun.





As others have said, "the rock tide to a string whirling about your head" is the simplest analogy to the Sun / Earth / Gravity relationship. The rock wants to fly away from you but the string (representing gravity) tugs it back into place. Again For every centimeter (cm) that the rock tries moves sideways (away from your head), the string pulls it a cm back in a sort of saw tooth fashion (|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\) and, as a result, the string smooths the straight line into and elliptical path around your head.|||You're confusing magnetism with gravity.





We are falling towards the sun - it's just that the sun is falling towards something too.





We are in what is termed an orbit around the sun.|||the planets are moving sideways. This is the same as if you have a weight on the end of a string. If you swing it around, you are constantly pulling it toward your hand, just as the gravity of the Sun pulls the planet in, but the motion sideways keeps the ball swinging around. Without that sideways motion, it would fall to the center; and without the pull toward the center, it would go flying off in a straight line, which is, of course, exactly what happens if you let go of the string.|||Magnetism is not gravity. And while the gravity of the sun is very strong, we are not crashing into the sun, because we and the other planets are moving so fast that we miss the sun all the time while falling. Earth moves at 29.6 km/s - that is so unbelievable fast, that you could cross the USA in just 144.3 seconds, less than 2.5 minutes.





You can imagine that like driving a racing car through a steep turn - if you are too slow gravity of Earth will pull you to the inside of the turn. But if you are fast enough, you will be able to drive perfectly through it, without the need to use the steering wheel. The same it is with Earth around the sun, the centrifugal force of its motion around the sun is countered by the gravity of the sun, keeping Earth in a closed turn around it.|||The attraction jsut isn't strong enough.





And yes, we are moving sideways too fast for the directional gravitatoinal force of the sun to pull us in.





The way I like to concieve this is like so- imagine you're falling towards a mountain, but are also moving sideways. If you're fast enough, by the time you reach the height of the mountain, you will have moved far enough away that you miss the mountain. The Earth is doing something similar to the sun, but it never stops.|||Electromagnetism is not like gravity... in that with gravity, things only attract, whereas with electromagnetism, things both attract and repel.





Planets, Stars, Galaxies, etc. tend to be magnetically neutral. For example, approximately equal parts of the Sun's extended magnetic field is positive and negative. Thus, on the large scale of say, the solar system, it neither pulls on, or pushes, planets (which they, themselves are magnetically neutral as well).





For this reason, magnetism doesn't really effect the orbits of celestial bodies. Gravity is really the only thing that matters at these scales.|||haven't u ever heard of the Elliptical path ? elliptical path is the way how planets go around the sun.. which means in an oval way, so whenever the sun is pulling us we can't go in a straight way towards it but what happens is we just cross the edges of the sun quickly and then get thrown away.. afterwards the same event happens all over again and so on... this way planets would never crash the sun








(the magnetic field has nothing to do with the strength of pulling anyway. Definition of magnetic field: A region of space near a magnetized body where magnetic forces can be detected.)





i hope u get it





Vedy.|||I guess what you meant is gravity.





Why do the planets doesn't crash to the Sun? Because we orbits. The total momentum made us rotates around the sun instead of falling to it. There are many objects that falls into the sun, most of them are comets, small asteroids, etc.





The magnetic field of the sun is so high yes, it creates an effect called the solar wind. In fact this magnetic field goes all the way to beyond the orbit of Sedna, and all those undiscovered bodies out there. These particles are able to escape the sun's gravity, in part because of the high temperature of the corona, but also because of high kinetic energy that particles gain through a process that is not well-understood.|||we orbit too fast to fall into the sun|||The sun doesn't pull us towards it, it holds us in one position, like when you see a metal ball floating in mid air between two magnets. Thats why we have a orbit route which doesn't change.
