gravitational force

• Die natürliche physikalische Anziehungskraft zwischen massebehafteten Körpern, die vor allem als Erdanziehung wahrgenommen wird, durch die Gegenstände Gewicht haben und auf dem Boden bleiben.

The natural physical force of attraction between objects with mass, most commonly experienced as the pull of the Earth that gives weight to objects and keeps them grounded.

1. Fundamental force of attractionB2formal

   The natural force of attraction between any two objects with mass, which is responsible for keeping planets in orbit and objects on the ground.

   Fundamentale Anziehungskraft

   • The gravitational force of the Earth keeps the Moon in its orbit.
   • Newton's law of universal gravitation describes the gravitational force between two masses.
   • Astronauts experience microgravity because the gravitational force is weaker in space.
