this doesn't explain anything more than what the formula indicates. why dont you explain why the formula works?
-
Youre the best! Thank you

This doesn't explain why gravity get stronger, just the math behind it. No one know for sure why it works.

Great Video! Super helpful and well thought out! I was wondering though why don't you need the radius of M2 to find Force? It seems that you are only looking for the force of M1, and the Total Gravitational Force would be greater.

solved such confusin ques and explained so easily..... my mind is clear now on this topic..thanks
-
Sorry for the off-topic question, but I just want to share like you, so I want to know which program are you using. Thanks in advance, and keep going with the great work!

thank you so much :)

The part about the center of mass, I had never thought about that. My mind has been blown.

Big ups to Khan for all his work!
But isn't this quite obvious?

@rotateaxis Saturn is 95 x more massive than the earth, Whereas the volume of Saturn is 764 x the volume of earth. This huge volume makes the density of Saturn very low. So the gravity force on an object from Saturn is stronger than the force on an object from the earth, with respect to distance.
