What is Gravitational Force?

Concept

Gravitational force, or weight, deals with the pulling force between two objects due to gravity. Mathematically, it is equal to the product of scalar mass and vector acceleration due to gravity.

Kinematics

Crossroad

Kinematics is a subfield of Mechanics that deals with the motion of matter without considering the force affecting it. In this field, we deal with ideas like distance, speed, acceleration, and more.

Strength of Materials

Crossroad

When a deformable object experiences a force, it will experience internal stresses and deformation. The subfield, strength of materials, deals with this phenomenon.
