well given it just dissapeared...the we would just float off into darkness and the sun would appear to move in the sky at a strange angle..it would take many weeks for us to die starting with plants then herbibores and so on
as for some of the other comments
gravity and light are largely misunderstood.... it is not even close to being fully understood in the scientific community...infact most of what we know about it is theoretical , it is believed that gravity is spread over many dimentions and that accounts for its apparent weakness in comparison to say magnitisim
and light changes its properties (this is due to wave-particle duality , google it)
also you cannot say that gravity or light or anything else has a defined speed (unless in a vacum) as it is dependent on the medium (for light) or mass of the objects (for gravity) gravity can also affect light, bending and distorting it over large distances
it is even possible with recently emerging technology to stop light inside a crystal by altering it with a magnetic field
what it comes down to is that gravity is an attractive force
and light is something that it acts apon as much as an apple
light moves so fast that it has verry little effect, until you come to the likes of a black hole (witch has been proven to exist in most galaxies including our own) once past the event horison the gravity becomes so strong that not even light can escape eg. on earth gravity is meaured at 9.81m s-2 at a black hole it becomes many many millions of times this due to its emmence density (imagine our sun squashed into the eye of a pin ) hence why light cannot escape
to shorten all that - light moves.....movement is measured in.....meters per second
- gravity is an attractive force....force is measured in.....newtons
you cannot say witch is faster as gravity doesnot move....the projectile does
i hope this clears things up
sorry fer babbleing on....kinda baked!
