3 days ago · Gravity is accurately described by the general theory of relativity which describes gravity not as a force but as a consequence of the curvature of spacetime, caused by the uneven distribution of mass/energy, and resulting in gravitational time dilation, where time lapses more slowly in lower (stronger) gravitational potential.
2 days ago · In this lecture we discussed the basic concepts of Gravitation and gravity of Newtonian physics.
1 day ago · In physics, theories of gravitation postulate mechanisms of interaction governing the movements of bodies with mass. There have been numerous theories of gravitation since ancient times. The first extant sources discussing such theories are found in ancient Greek philosophy. This work was furthered through the Middle Ages by Indian, Islamic ...
1 day ago · In this work, a research group from the U.K., Netherlands, and Italy designed an experiment so sensitive that it can measure a gravitational force equal to one-quintillionth of a Newton (on the ...
5 days ago · Gravity is a force that pulls objects towards each other. The more mass an object has, the stronger its gravitational pull. For example, the Earth has a much stronger gravitational pull than a small rock because the Earth has much more mass. Gravity is what keeps us on the ground.
4 days ago · Loop quantum gravity (LQG) is a theory of quantum gravity that incorporates matter of the Standard Model into the framework established for the intrinsic quantum gravity case. It is an attempt to develop a quantum theory of gravity based directly on Albert Einstein 's geometric formulation rather than the treatment of gravity as a mysterious ...
5 days ago · Gravity is a force that attracts any two objects with mass. The more mass an object has, the stronger its gravitational pull. This means that the Earth, with its massive size, exerts a strong gravitational force on everything around it, including us! Think about it: when you jump, you eventually come back down.
