It is going to fast sideways next to it. Actually earth is constantly
falling into the sun but it needs to go slower to fall into it or even
faster to fly off into space further away from it.

In physics, escape velocity is the speed where the kinetic energy of
an object is equal to the magnitude of its gravitational potential
energy... It is commonly described as the speed needed to "break free"
from a gravitational field. The term escape velocity can be considered
a misnomer because it is actually a speed rather than a velocity, i.e.
it specifies how fast the object must move but not in which direction.

The centripetal force is the external force required to make a body
follow a circular path at constant speed (speed being the magnitude of
velocity). Hence centripetal force is a force requirement, not a
particular kind of force. Any force (gravitational, electromagnetic,
etc.) can act as a centripetal force. The force is directed inward,
toward the center of the circle or "oriented toward the axis of
rotation." The term centripetal force comes from the Latin words
centrum ("center") and petere ("tend towards", "aim at."), and can
also be derived from Isaac Newton's original definitions described in
Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica.

The centripetal force always acts perpendicular to the direction of
motion of the body. In the case of an object that moves along a
circular arc with a changing speed, the net force on the body may be
decomposed into a perpendicular component that changes the direction
of motion (the centripetal force), and a parallel, or tangential
component, that changes the speed.

Centripetal force should not be confused with centrifugal force

When we throw a big Stone in air It will Fall Back on Earth.
Simmilarly For Sun Earth is just a piece of Rock? Who do this big rock
Earth Fall onto the Sun Just like the Stones which we throw in air
just come back and hit the Earth?

Simmilarly why not the Moon fall on Earth by the Gravity attration?

Why are the planets revolving round the sun for so many years instead
of just falling onto the Sun?

When we visit Moon on a Rocket Our Rocket Just Falls on Surface of
moon So why these heavenly bodies not falling on Bigger one?

Default The ( unimaginable ) 4-D world that's intrinsic to nature.

In oh-so-very-human 3-D,
the earth's orbit has angular momentum and “ action ” is conserved;
not so in the ( unimaginable ) 4-D world that's intrinsic to nature.

The earth is moving in a staight line.. but spacetime is curved.
The spacetime continuum is also known as hyperspace,
i.e. the 4-D gravitational field, a hyperstructure.

Randomness is ignorance, nothing more.
When a system is fully known it can be modeled in 4-D;
otherwise its a 3-D model or ( worse ) a statistical model.

For some light reading on this topic see
this philosophical novel about World War II and 4-D hyperspace:
“ Slaughterhouse-Five;
or, The Children's Crusade: A Duty-Dance With Death ”.

Einstein said:
“ I see a pattern,
but my imagination cannot picture the maker of that pattern.
I see a clock, but I cannot envision the clockmaker.

The human mind is unable to conceive of the four dimensions,

so how can it conceive of a God,
before whom a thousand years and a thousand dimensions are as one ? ”.
-- “ The Expanded Quotable Einstein ”,
Princeton University Press, 2000 Page 208

Petkov ( 2005 ) has this to say:
“ This paper pursues two aims.

First, to show that the block universe view, regarding the universe as
a timelessly existing four-dimensional world,
is the only one that is consistent with special relativity.

Second, to argue that special relativity alone can resolve
the debate on whether the world is
three-dimensional or four-dimensional.

The argument advanced in the paper is that
if the world were three-dimensional

the kinematic consequences of special relativity and more importantly
the experiments confirming them would be impossible. ”.

-- “ Is There an Alternative to the Block Universe View ? ”
http://Philsci-Archive.Pitt.EDU/archive/00002408/

From Einstein's, " Ether and the Theory of Relativity " ( 1920 )
quoted at " http://TUHH.DE/rzt/rzt/it/Ether.html ":

" But this ether may not be thought of as
endowed with the quality characteristic of ponderable media,
as consisting of parts which may be tracked through time.

The idea of motion may not be applied to it. ".

The Earth does not fall into the Sun because it is constantly accelerating
at a right angle to the Sun.

Whoops! The force (gravity) is directed toward the sun and hence the
acceleration is directed toward the sun.


Whoops yourself. If the acceleration was all toward the Sun, the planet
would fall into the Sun, just as the OP perceives.
It is the right angel acceleration that keeps the planet from falling into
the Sun.

That is fine, except it leaves out the acceleration perpendicular to the
acceleration
toward the star.

Recommend you get yourself a freshman physics book and do
some self education. Best of luck.


I've already taken that class and made an A.

greetings marten


Actually Newtonian physics say something similar: mass dictates
gravitational force (upon another mass) and in turn, the gravitational
force dictates how mass moves by the reaction of that gravitational
mass (third law).

There is nothing wrong with both sttatements. They produce wonderful
models of gravitational effects although they do not explain why the
effects happen in the "chicken and egg" sense you you should not worry
about that.

what i said above was offcourse a joke,

but as far as newton and einstein are concerned,
I once read something, that newton one time said ,that is was for him hard
to comprehend ,
how is was possible ,that the earth could attract the moon over such a
distance,
and keep it in orbit,
and that he expected ,that some day there would come somebody in the future
to figure that one out,
and that man came a couple of 100 years later , and figured that one out,

that mass curves space and that curved space in his turn dictates mass how
to move,

I think newton would have liked it,because it is brilliant

and that changed our understanding how the world around us works,
though we don't know everything yet,
but is was really a big step forward ,
