Gravity and Losing Weight

Might be the way to feel good about your self in the future 😜

What is Gravity?

To be honest, we do not know what gravity “is” in any fundamental way. We just have assumptions about what it is. But, we do know how it behave in our universe.

Assumptions of what is gravity?

Some scientists think that it is made up of particles called gravitons which travel at the speed of light. However, if we are to be honest, we do not know what gravity “is” in any fundamental way

What do we know about it? And how does it behave?

Gravity is a force of attraction that exists between any two masses, any two bodies, any two particles. Gravity is not just the attraction between objects and the Earth. It is an attraction that exists between all objects, everywhere in the universe.

How Does it behave? well, Gravity is most accurately described by the general theory of relativity (proposed by Albert Einstein in 1915) which describes gravity not as a force, but as a consequence of the curvature of spacetime caused by the uneven distribution of mass. The most extreme example of this curvature of spacetime is a black hole, from which nothing — not even light — can escape once past the black hole’s event horizon. However, for most applications, gravity is well approximated by Newton’s law of universal gravitation, which describes gravity as a force which causes any two bodies to be attracted to each other.

Where are the extreme points of most and least gravitational force?

You’d think that more close to the core of earth you’d be more pulled and the further you go, the less it pulls you. well its right and wrong to think that way.

To make it more clear, gravity will depend on the mass based on what scientist were able to understand so far. and gravity isn’t the same everywhere on Earth.

So, gravity is slightly stronger over places with more mass underground than over places with less mass. NASA uses two spacecraft to measure these variations in Earth’s gravity. These spacecraft are part of the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) mission.

The model pinpoints more extreme differences in gravitational acceleration than previously seen. Mount Nevado Huascarán in Peru has the lowest gravitational acceleration, at 9.7639 m/s2, while the highest is at the surface of the Arctic Ocean, at 9.8337 m/s2.

These differences mean that in the unlikely event that you found yourself falling from a height of 100 metres at each point, you would hit the surface in Peru about 16 milliseconds later than in the Arctic.

What can we do if we were able to understand it and mimic it?

Imagine that we’re able to control gravity, it means that we can gain too much benefits.

• Control weight of things
• Control things remotely
• We can build flying machines
• We can build flying houses
• And lots of other stuff that was blocked by being stuck to the ground..

Conclusion

We still don’t know much about gravity, And you would lose 1 per cent of your body weight in moving from the Arctic to the Peruvian mountaintop, although your mass would not change.References:
