  • loodusnähtus, mille toimel kõik massiga kehad üksteise poole tõmbuvad
  • natural phenomenon by which all things with mass or energy - including planets, stars, galaxies, and even light
  • fundamental interaction which causes mutual attraction between all things that have mass
kehadevaheline tõmbejõud preferred
Usage examples
  • Kehadevaheline tõmbejõud on aga kõige olulisem objektide vastastikune mõju makroskoopilisel skaalal ja see määrab planeetide, tähtede, galaktikate ja isegi valguse liikumise.

Usage examples

raskus preferred
kaal deprecated
weight preferred
  • keha poolt tekitatav jõud, mis on keha massi m ja selle keha raskuskiirenduse g korrutis, st et Fg = mg
  • force acting on a body, equal to the product of the mass m of that body and the local acceleration of free fall g, thus Fg = mg
raskus preferred
Usage examples
  • Raskus on jõud, mida kehale avaldab gravitatsioon.
kaal deprecated
Good to know
  • Kaal on mõõtevahend.
weight preferred
Usage examples
  • A weight is the force exerted on a body by gravity.
