A new discovery suggests gravitational fields can enable matter to become quantum entangled — and that's even if the concept ...
Gravity is a ubiquitous part of our daily lives — whether we’re being tragically brought to our knees after tripping on the rug or gleefully jumping from a swing’s apex. But despite how common the ...
Learn how to calculate the universal gravitational force between two objects! This video explains Newton’s Law of Gravitation, walking you through the formula, units, and a step-by-step example to ...
In 2010, renowned string theory expert Erik Verlinde from the University of Amsterdam and the Delta Institute for Theoretical Physics proposed that gravity is not a fundamental force of nature, but ...
Of the four fundamental forces of physics, gravity is the one we’re most familiar with in everyday life, but it’s also the only one that can’t currently be explained by quantum physics. Now scientists ...
Even teeny objects obey the law of gravity. A gold ball just 2 millimeters wide, with a mass of about 90 milligrams, is now the smallest object to have its gravitational pull measured. Observations of ...
Shini sits down to talk about how Newtonian Gravity is more than a little important. In this episode of Crash Course Physics, Shini sits down to talk about the realities of the apple story and how ...
Jon Chase explains that the mass of an object is constant but its weight depends on the gravitational force. This force is higher on more massive planets and he would weigh more on Jupiter than on ...
Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. The Universe is out there, waiting for you to discover it. In a moment over 100 years in the making, the 2017 Nobel Prize in ...
A mission to make a very high-resolution map of the Earth’s gravitational field has blasted off today at 15:21 local time from the Northern Russian Plesetsk Cosmodrome. The €350m Gravity Field and ...
