Question:
In Example 21.1 (Section 21.3) we saw that the electric force between two a particles is of the order of 1035 times as strong as the gravitational force. So why do we readily feel the gravity of the earth but no electric force from it?

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
