Are subatomic particles affected by gravity?

Gravity affects all subatomic particles with mass, including photons, per MC Physics. That effect is seen in Hubble’s findings of distant galaxies having a red-shift of light (ie lower frequency and therefore kinetic energy). The more distant the galaxy the more the red-shift measured…in all directions from us.

Are protons and electrons affected by gravity?

Yes, Electrons have mass and everything with mass is affected by gravitation(gravity).

Are protons affected by gravity?

Yes. Everything with energy has gravity. Protons and neutrons have energy. Therefore, they have gravity.

Does gravity affect dust?

Rather than the dust bouncing around randomly, the dust often wiggled around in straight lines, even without gravity. “Gravity on Earth is at least as strong as the electric forces between the dust grains.

Which subatomic particles are affected by electromagnetic force?

The electromagnetic force binds negatively charged electrons to positively charged atomic nuclei and gives rise to the bonding between atoms to form matter in bulk. Gravity and electromagnetism are well known at the macroscopic level.

What particles are not affected by gravity?

The two known massless particles are both gauge bosons: the photon (carrier of electromagnetism) and the gluon (carrier of the strong force).

Are atoms affected by gravity?

Gravity affects atoms the same way it affects all other matter. Every atom creates its own gravitational field which attracts all other matter in the universe. If you put a lot of atoms together, like in a planet or a star, all of the little gravitational fields add together, creating a much stronger pull.

Does gravity attract gravity?

Gravity does not really attract at all, its the curvature of space-time caused by a concentrated form of mass/energy. Well, gravity actually IS explained in Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity (GR).

Does gravity always attract?

Gravity is always attractive force because as is most accurately described by the general theory of relativity (proposed by Albert Einstein in 1915) which describes gravity not as a force, but as a consequence of the curvature of spacetime caused by the uneven distribution of mass.
