    I mean, yeah

    The electrostatic force is why the ocean stays on the outside of the ball instead of the whole thing being consolidated into a black hole

        Gravity wants to make the atoms touch and the subatomic particles touch too. ESF says nuh uh and pushes them apart, so atoms are >99% empty space. If the forces flipped the Earth would contract into a spheroid much smaller than the moon.
