Right. Got it. Total waste of time.

Have fun with whatever game you're playing. I'm out.

Mr Crocodile, the 'game' is asking how two masses combine to form a gravitational force as in Sir Isaac Newton's law of gravity.

It is noted that you are unable to explain the physics of a pull. As I posted, you are in the company of Sir Isaac and Mr Einstein.

You won't answer my questions, why should I answer yours? I tried to engage you in a discussion, but you're clearly not here to have a discussion. You're just trolling. Troll away, maybe someone else with nothing better to do will play for a while.

Mr Crocodile, you answered my question (about what the physics of a pull are) with a question. And I chose to seek a proper answer to my question rather than let it fall away.


If you really want

What we know is a celestial mass, like the earth, causes an inverse square law in the space around its self. This says to me that the gravity field of the earth is something to do with the increasing nature of the curved surface area around the earth (as the earth is moved away from).

That in turn implies there is a force in space at right angles to what we consider the direction of fall. If force decreases with curved surface area increase, then the more curved surface area the force can be dissipated into controls the rate of drop off of the force. Can you follow that?

If that is correct, the force of 'gravity' would be away from the earth. It would be the atomic matter of earth forcing space into space as it were. And the force would decrease as distance away from the earth increases.

Which would mean that the curved surface area around the earth is a gradient that is detectable when we drop things. Or in the case of Sir Isaac, see an apple fall.

So there you have gravity explained in terms of push force only. But the faith leap of space naturally existing as infinitesimal particulate matter is included.

Magnetism, well, you would have to start looking at magnetism as antithesis of gravity. But that is not what this thread is about.

So there you. Your question answered which, in terms of social mores, I was not required to.

So Mr Crocodile, what are the physics of a pull.


You attempted to explain the tides in terms of pulls. The emboldened words are thus your question to answer. Either you know or you don't know.
