Yes but magnets don't attract humans
, neither a wooden ball. In the case of a wooden ball, gravity beats magnetic force. Not all forces are the same. Different forces act on different things and in different circumstances.
Platitudes are not clever!
Gravity is the only law which acts on all objects regardless of their composition.
So you say, you call it 'gravity' from the latin word gravitas for 'heaviness', this even if you formulate a measurement for it and call it gravitons or heaviness units or whatever you want, does not explain anythying, it is used to try to explain what is not seen, in any case I can easily prove that it is not 'gravity' that is the force causing the observable phenomena.
Gravity is poorly understood and very limited as a theory, it is called the "mystery force" and Newton himself admits he does not understand it, it's really just a secular gap filler like the word 'evolution'.
What makes us all hold together? what makes all our atoms hold together? what hold the earth up? I could use the Greek verb sunistao meaning cohere, preserve, hold together, this Biblical Greek word is 'consist' in English, Colossians 1:17 "And Christ is before all things, and by Him all things consist." "that in all things He may have preminence."
You know we have many people to this day searching fot the unifying of forces, searching for the hidden relationship between EM and 'Gravity' (I hate the word), but no one really understands, least of all what is this 'gravity', how does God keep us bound to the underside of a sphere hung out in black nothingness of space, I don't know! Bible says that preminence is given to Christ and by Him all things consist, when secular modern scientists who are blindly following the ancient teachings of the Kabbahla call it 'heaviness' or 'gravity' with no understanding of what that force is, I have to stand up and say, No, wait, you cannot say that, your replacing God with an invisible mystery Yoda star wars type force and then slapping some ordinary number unit system to it and selling it as the universal law of just about everything, and now that is wrong!
EM doesn't. EM also acts over shorter distances than gravity, put the magnet at 1 metre away from the steel ball, and the gravity force is still stronger because the ball won't move.
Then I can get a bigger magnet or blow up a hot air ballon and attach it to the ball with a string, wrestling the steel ball away from the massive gravitational pull of the earth with one small balloon of my hot air and a piece of twine! Gravitas (heaviness) defeated by hot air! See it's such a dull useless redundant theory that has more holes in it then swiss cheese.
Unless you move the magnet closer. The theory of gravity explains things a lot better than EM or any other force.
It is not an explaination it's a magic word that is used to cover an area of lack of knowledge, gravity is not explainable and is not logical and the least understood of all forces.
Unless you can get a magnet to stick to you I would be amazed. So how can an EM force keep humans stuck to earth. The theory of gravity has successfully allowed humans to travel to space, fly in airplanes, make medicines, win wars, and many things.
You might as well ask me how the atoms of my body are held together? Newton's theory is not really much of theory, probably his worst moment and hoisted on the masses in accordance with the displacement of God and Christianity, the theory of gravity is 'science falsely called' that has been established as secular human doctrine and it has done nothing but harm. It's not hard to put a human in orbit, there was a monkey in orbit before there was a man, it's not hard, and it's got nothing to do with gravity theories!
