Gravitation

... exerted. We also have the law of gravitation, which states that the gravitational force exerted on an object is proportional to the gradient of a scalar field Φ, known as the gravitational potential. ... the gravitational mass m g : f g = −m g ∇Φ . (4.2) On the face of it, m g has a very different character than m i ; it is a quantity specific to the gravitational force. If you like, it is the...

... believe my measures with a rigid rod determine it accurately when no disturbance like gravitation is present; but in a gravitational field it is not unreasonable to expect that the uncorrected measures ... observations involving gravitation. Would this throw light on our motion through the aether? I think not. It would show that there is some standard of rest with respect to which the law o...
