  1. in physics, gravitational force is attraction force of earth.


  2. Gravitational is an adverb for gravitation, meaning it is related to gravity.

    When somebody tells you, that you have a strong gravitational attraction, you should feel pretty insulted.

  3. Gravitation is a natural phenomenon by which objects with mass attract one another[1] proportionately. In everyday life, gravitation is most commonly thought of as the agency which lends weight to any object. Gravitation compels dispersed matter to coalesce, thus it accounts for the very existence of the Earth, the Sun, and most of the macroscopic objects in the universe.

    Modern physics describes gravitation using the general theory of relativity. Newton's law of universal gravitation provides an excellent approximation for most calculations.

    The terms gravitation and gravity are mostly interchangeable in everyday use, but in scientific usage a distinction may be made. "Gravitation" is a general term describing the proportionate, attractive influence that all objects with mass exert upon one another; "gravity" refers to the force that is supposed in some theories (such as Newton's) to be the cause of this attraction. Gravity is one of the fundamental forces of physics responsible for keeping the Earth and the other planets in their orbits around the Sun; for keeping the Moon in its orbit around the Earth, for the formation of tides; for convection (by which hot fluids rise); for heating the interiors of forming stars and planets to very high temperatures; and for various other phenomena that we observe. By contrast, in general relativity gravitation is due to spacetime curvatures which cause inertially moving objects to accelerate towards each other.


  4. Your question seems to be incomplete.

    But, if u r asking for gravitational force, then i can say that it is the force exerted by the earth on each and every thing on it.

  6. (physics) the force of attraction between all masses in the universe

  7. Take a Bucket with some water in it...

    Now hold the bucket and start rotation fast...and gradually lift the bucket to your face level...

    See, the water won't spill out(unless you rotate sloe)...in the sameway Earth rotates and this rotation causes some magnetic pull..This is called Gravitational Force.

  8. force of attraction between any thing in univers
