This larger gravitational force between two bodies relies on something called the gravitational constant that is used to calculate the relative gravitational force between two objects.

According to Newtonian physics, the gravitational attraction between two masses is proportional to the inverse of the square ...

For example, take the team's research into Isaac Newton's inverse square law, which stipulates that the gravitational force between two objects is proportional to the square of the distance ...

The weak gravitational pull on a particle just half the mass of a grain of sand has been measured for the first time. This most precise measurement of its kind is a breakthrough towards the ...

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 ...

While the electromagnetic, weak, and strong forces are described by the Standard Model of particle physics, gravity remains an outlier—resisting efforts to be fully explained by quantum theory.

Quantum particles can feel the influence of gravitational fields they never touch Scientists reveal that the Aharonov-Bohm effect also applies to gravity ...

Getting science stuff in a show is tough. But that doesn't give it license to be wrong. Here's how Neil DeGrasse Tyson could have been more accurate about the physics of how gravity affects ...

Just as ocean waves shape our shores, ripples in space-time may have once set the Universe on an evolutionary path that led to the cosmos as we see it today.

The movie Gravity had everyone spellbound with its gripping portrayal of spacewalks and the perils astronauts encounter ...
