Before you depend on this "General Relativity", you should check what it depend on. It relativises its reference frames, arguments, concepts, imaginations, assumptions in a big and complicated circle --- its base is relative. If you want to lean on something based on that shaky ground, it's your choice.

According to General Relativity, gravity will distort space-time.

Certainly it appears that gravity does so.

I have no idea which fundamental force is the result of warped space time. However, gravity will create warped space time.


Is gravity a dimension?

No, it is an attractive force caused by the interaction of particles with the dimensions of space/time.


How many newtons of force does a water bottle rocket exert at the highest altitude?

At the top of the rocket's trajectory it is motionless for a brief time and the only force acting on it is that of gravity; the rocket motor has long since spent its energy.

Gravity exerts its force on the mass of a photon or on space-time to bend the light?

As we understand it, photons have no mass, so the force cannot be due to any mass interactions. Space is bent or warped, and the light follows the space.


Does a gravity machine exist?

That depends; what exactly do you expect such a "gravity machine" to do? * Any mass will exert a force of gravity. * Artificial gravity (an imitation of gravity) can be produced through quick spinning. * Other types of "artificial gravity" appear in science fiction stories, but they don't appear in current technology, and it seems unlikely that they will be, any time soon.


Does gravity exert the same force on all falling objects?

No. Gravity can be thought of as a force, but that is due to its effect on anything that possesses mass and/or energy. The effect that gravity exerts on any object is proportional to the amount of mass that is responsible for the presence of gravity and is also proportional to the amount of mass possessed by the object experiencing that gravitational presence. Therefore a gravitational field will exert a greater 'force' on a greater mass. However, mass also possesses the characteristic of inertia, which is a measure of resistance to any change to a state of motion - which effectively is a resistance to the effect of gravity. Inertia is also proportional to mass. What this means is that the greater the mass, the greater the pull it experiences due to gravity but at the same time, the greater is its resistance to that pull. Hence all falling objects experience the same acceleration due to the effect of gravity which is not the same as the force. All objects fall at the same rate. ========================= (Note: Gravity does not exert the same force on all objects, which is the reason why big people "weigh" more than smaller people do on the same planet.)


What is the force you exert when using a machine?

input force/effort force In physics, the force that you apply to something over time is "work".

What did Albert Einstein think about gravity?

einstein thinks that gravity is not a force at all.It is the shortest path in space time curvature.according to einstein when ever heavier object like sun in space it curves the space around it and the object like earth moves around it.
