Overview
Gravitational interaction dynamics is a fundamental aspect of physics that explains how objects with mass attract each other. This attraction is described by Newton's Law of Gravitation, which quantifies the gravitational force between two masses based on their mass and the distance separating them....
Key Terms
Example: The gravity of Earth keeps us grounded.
Example: A rock has a mass of 2 kg.
Example: Pushing a door is applying a force.
Example: Calculating satellite orbits involves orbital mechanics.
Example: High tides occur when the moon is directly overhead.
Example: Earth's escape velocity is about 11.2 km/s.
