Gravity is the force of attraction between two objects, and Earth's gravity pulls matter downward, toward its center. It pulls precipitation down from clouds and pulls water downhill. ... The warm water near the surface of the ocean heats up with sunlight and evaporates, keeping the water cycle in motion.
