Im trying to think of the best way to put this
G is not g
that is correct
Right
G is a gravitational constant
So g isnt gravity
It is acceleration due to gravity
yes
Gravity isn't the acceleration per se
how is it not?
F=ma
yes
So, gravity between more massive objects is larger
Right?
the mass would be the object, and acceleration is the gravity
and yes that is correct
More like F/m=a
yes
We can call the force gravity
Mass is just mass
gravity is not a force in itself, it only causes a force on another mass
We have a terminology disagreement
Which is okay
I'll see if I can get some sources which clarify my point
It has nothing to do with mass it’s mass and energy in general
Even light has gravity but it has no mass
E=mc^2
Shoot energy and momentum I mean
ok, so?
So it’s wrong to say it’s just mass
I have some university level material, too
Like GR?
But this is the easiest to just skim
E=mc^2 talks mass energy equivalency
@SpiderLedgic (Cancer) i see your point
Gravity is the curvature of space time
its relitivity
Now this is a real discussion
the formula to calculate gravitational acceleration is Gm/r^2
