Why don't ferrous metals fall to earth faster than other objects?

Given that gravity is a weak force compared with magnetism and given the fact that the earth is a magnet, why don't ferrous metals fall to earth faster than other objects? Seems like they should!

Do gravitational fields interact with electric or magnetic fields?

We know that Electric Fields interact with Magnetic Fields, but do Electric Fields or Magnetic Fields interact with Gravitational Fields, and if so how?

Is gravitomagnetism a thing or just an analogy to explain why object precess near massive object?

I browsed a couple of articles treating gravity like a bar magnet, explaining how object can precess in the vicinity of gravity well using analogy of motion of charged particle in magnetic field. So I ...

Is the magnetic force fully analogous to gravitation?

Superficially, the force between two magnets would seem to be fully analogous to gravity because each is the product of two factors divided by the square of the distance between the objects being ...

How does this magnetic toy work?

A nephew of mine has this toy called "Gravitrax". It is basically a track building kit - you can build various tracks for iron balls which go through the track thanks to gravity. However, there is ...

Can my theory work for letting the swinging work?

This is my theory, will it stop after few hours? why would it stop? i have on top S to S to repel then i have N S to attract, to produce random force for the swing. Then i have large N N repel to push ...

Are static magnetic and electric fields distorted by gravity? How?

Suppose we have a pointed electric charge or a bipolar magnet. If we put a massive gravity source nearby, will the magnetic and electric fields be distorted? In what way?

Does energy of photon change due to some external magnetic field?

I came to know about the energy of photon changes (decreases) while going away from the emitter (even from earth) due to gravitational field effects. Is there any change in energy/wavelength of a ...

Influences on wavefunction path analysis

I was looking at simulations of a wave going through a slit. When the wavelength was much smaller than the slit width, the wave went through the slit and kept going straight like a laser beam. But ...

Electron traveling through gravitational and magnetic field

When an electron travels through a magnetic field it experiences the Lorentz force. The force acting on the electron causes an acceleration and therefore Cyclotron radiation is emitted. After reading ...

A question gravitation and magnetism? [closed]

Suppose I have a magnet and I put a piece of iron next to it, then the magnet will attract it. Now if I put a piece of wood in front of the magnet and the piece of iron, the iron will not get ...

In atoms which are more likely to attract first until they are together? Magnetism, gravity, electrostatic charge or other? [closed]

When do single atoms begin to pull together when they are close enough like 2 magnets? Could 1 atom contain a magnetic field and would it be stronger than an atom's own gravity? I know that atoms ...

If light is affected by gravity, does that mean gravity affects electrical&magnetic fields too?

Since we observed that masses indeed bend the light, and since we consider light to be composed of electrical and magnetic fields, does that mean a single point charge will result with bent electrical ...

Why can a magnet setup not fly?

I know that the following setup won't work to lift it up forever: But I'm struggling to convince myself why. If the top magnet is strong enough to lift the weight, why is the bottom magnet not ...
