What is the relationship between gravity and newtons?
Gravity is a force and its effect on a mass is measured in newtons.
How does newtons view of gravity differ from Einsteins view of gravity?
Einstein's view of gravity is built upon Newton's but extended to some special situations where Newton's Laws (postulations?) have been shown or suggested not to apply. In particular in the presence of extremely high gravitational forces such as occur close to a black hole and as velocities approach the speed of light.
Frorce of gravity expressed in newtons?
9.81*mass = Newtons of forcethe mass is in kilograms
How does newtons law affect the force of gravity?
The law doesn't affect gravity; it describes it.
What is Einstein's theory of gravity called?
The theory that Einstein developed which pertains to gravity is called general relativity.
When Einsteins theory of gravity general relativity gained acceptance it demonstrated that Newtons theory had been?
Incomplete
Whose theory of relativity replaced newtons comforting beliefs in a world run by absolute laws of motion and gravity?
Albert Einstein:)
Is there anything called Gravitational Push?
yes. there is no such thing as the gravitational pull however. look up Einsteins theory of special relativity. the bend of space is what gravity really is.

Why we are not thrown off due to earth's revolution?
Gravity Einsteins theories of relativity say the mass of the earth bends space, and so although we ARE thrown off, we follow bent space back to Earth.
What is the relationship between gravity and newtons?
Gravity is a force and its effect on a mass is measured in newtons.
What is a good explanation of what gravity is?
Gravity- The force that attracts a body toward the Earth, or toward any other physical body having mass. For most purposes Newtons laws of gravity apply with minor modifications to take the general theory of relativity into account. FACT= *Gravity is measured by Acceleration.
What happens when the upward pull of gravity and the downward pull of gravity become equal in magnitude to an object?
Gravity only appears to pull upwards relative to your position. Einsteins theory of relativity comes into play here, and as you can only be in one place at any given time you are only affected by the pull of the objects gravity you are on. Besides if the two objects had the same gravity they would remain where they were.
Is the force of gravity or E and M subject to relativity?
Yes. Everything is subject to relativity. We know that electormagnetism (EM) is subject to relativity because we see light from distant stars and galaxies bent by the gravity of intervening objects (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_lens). Gravity is subject to relativity because it is an essential element of General Relativity. GR says that gravity is the curvature of spacetime.
What are two countries you can get out of the word relativity?
I do not think that these countries exist because Gravity is everywhere. Wherever Gravity is a component, Relativity applies.
What is gravity measured neutrons protons newtons or electrons?
Newtons.
How can you correlate mass energy and gravity in universe?
Einsteins theory of relativity can answer this. The equation is E=mC^2. This reads e equals m c squared. E is energy, m is mass and every object that has mass has a gravitational pull.
