Glossary term: गुरुत्वाकर्षण

Description: गुरुत्वाकर्षण द्रव्यमान वाली वस्तुओं का पारस्परिक आकर्षण है। भौतिक तर्क के अनुसार, द्रव्यमान वाली कोई भी वस्तु हमेशा किसी अन्य द्रव्यमान वाली वस्तु पर आकर्षण बल लगाती है। इस आकर्षक बल को हम गुरुत्वाकर्षण के नाम से जानते हैं। आइंस्टीन का सामान्य सापेक्षता का सिद्धांत गुरुत्वाकर्षण को एक बल के बजाय अंतरिक्ष-समय की वक्रता के रूप में वर्णित करता है। हालाँकि, गुरुत्वाकर्षण का शास्त्रीय अनुमान अभी भी कई स्थितियों में सटीक है। कोई वस्तु जितनी अधिक विशाल होती है, उसका गुरुत्वाकर्षण बल/अंतरिक्ष-समय का विरूपण उतना ही मजबूत होता है, और इस प्रकार अन्य वस्तुओं पर आकर्षण बल उतना ही मजबूत होता है।
