Why is Einstein's theory of general relativity so important?
For it basically means that he has explained how gravity works
Did Einstein ever have a theory of gravity?
Yes, Einstein did produce a theory of gravity, and it is more accurate than Newton's theory of gravity.
What are the differences between Einstein's theory of gravity and Newton's theory of gravity?
Einstein's theory of gravity, known as general relativity, is a more comprehensive and accurate description of gravity compared to Newton's theory. While Newton's theory treats gravity as a force acting instantaneously between objects, Einstein's theory views gravity as the curvature of spacetime caused by mass and energy. This leads to predictions such as gravitational time dilation and the bending of light around massive objects, which are not accounted for in Newton's theory.
What is Einstein's theory of gravity called?
The theory that Einstein developed which pertains to gravity is called general relativity.
Why is the law of gravity a scientific law- not a scientific theory?
In general, a scientific theory is a proposed explanation that has not been fully proven yet, while a law is a theory that has been proven to be true by lots of experimentation. The theory of Gravity has been tested and shown to be correct so much that it is at this point clearly a scientific law.
What is theory behind gravity?
Gravity is not well understood. It is a property of matter.
What theory did Einsteins theory of relativity replace?
Einstein's theory of relativity replaced the Newtonian theory of gravity proposed by Sir Isaac Newton. Newton's theory described gravity as a force acting at a distance, whereas Einstein's theory described gravity as a curvature in spacetime caused by mass and energy.
What is the relation between Relativity Gravity and the Planets?
Relativity is a theory of gravity, and gravity governs the motion of planets. This is your answer in a nutshell. If you want a detailed answer, then I suggest you start studying general theory.
What was the name of the scientist who created the theory about gravity?
Sir Isaac Newton is the scientist who formulated the theory of gravity. His work on gravity was published in his book "Principia Mathematica" in 1687.
Why is gravity so important to us?
it is important to us because if we didn't have it we will be flying around in space.
Did the Catholic Church find the theory of gravity heresy?
The Church has always promoted science, I can find no evidence that they ever had a problem with the theory of gravity.
What was newtons most famous theory?
Gravity was Newton's most famous theory.
