@celwonder, the large body does not exert any so called force what happens is that matter and energy 'tells' space how to curve and the curved space determines and is responsible for the movement of the small body. As long as the small body is not in a curved space, no movement occurs.

Martinez19:
gravitation is due to the curvature of spacetime in the presence of matter and energy.

Reference pls.

that is the basic idea of the general theory of relativity. This is a theory that has been verified experimentally.

That green plant breathe in carbon dioxide and gives us oxygen ill keep swearing for all those teacher that tot me that rubbish

When I Was In Jss 3 My Basic Science Teacher Told Us That There 207 Bone In A Virgin Female And 206 In Male. That When She Becomes Disvirgined Her Bones Become 206. In Fact I Believed That, I Discovered Through Research By Browsing That It Is Not True.

my Teacher told me that plantain is proteinous and i engaged in an argument some years back and my hands fell

When my Biology teacher pronounced Euglena as Angola, jeez like wtf??

hahahaaaa...if to say ah follow dey dat your class, na faint ah for take scare the teacher away from the class...chai! See me see Children deceivers!

The worst is that the "O" in BODMAS stands for "Of" instead of "Order"

ohhh, u mean just like the contraction and relaxation of the veins to circulate blood round the body??

That there is a God.

This would be too advanced for ss1 and ss2 students to digest, our physics teachers tell us that 'mass' is constant which is false. We are being told this because the real facts would be too sophisticated foe our little minds.

the facts of general relativity are counter intuitive to the lay man.

Bro listen, it was only by studying advanced level Physics that you was able to understand Relativity, even Feynman said that some concepts in elementary physics are not really accurate yet they still teach it to high school students. If you 're well-grounded in Mathematics then you'll understand that teaching Relativity in High School is tantamount to teaching to Teaching Topology or Abstract Algebra to pupils in elementary school.

Advanced maths as well.

mine was my agric teacher. we were discussing poultry and giving examples of both wild and domestic birds. the examples given were hen, pigeon, ladybird..

alphaXIII:
your parents were wrong too
"a" and "an" does not strictly obey the vowel consonant rule...
example
a university instead of an university

Guy! Why u dey disgrace urself on a national forum like thus nah!

I hv been told that the earth is spherical..

Its a big lie.. ..
If earth is spherical as they say, WHY DONT WE LOOSE BALANCE OR FALL OFF THE EDGE?

Was also told the earth rotate which causes day and night.

Why dont we notice the minute movement, me wey dey one place for office why earth never rotate me move go canteen?

The canteen is on the spherical earth so it moves along with the earth.

Assignment: get a round table, place two stones at distances apart, spin the table gently and observe. Does the first stone ever catch up with the second?

Bro there's no logical premise within what you have written that warrants an argument... Cleanse yourself off such obsolete thoughts, my guess is that you have never been 32,000 feet above the earth's surface, because if you have then it will be glaring to you that the earth is indeed spherical.

Bro, I from Your Assertion, Since The Small Body Have To Get Nearer To The Curve Space Of The Big Body To Move, Then Its Movement Is Dependent On The Distance Between The Two Bodies. So What Do We Call This Influence By Presence Of The Large Body? Also, Can You Explain What You Mean By 'Tells' As This Word Sounds Vague In This Instance? Thanks.

Oluwasaeon:

Bro gravity is not a force. Read!

stop digging bro! pLease!!

Gravity Is not a force!? Really!?

You're making Newton uncomfortable in his tomb

author=celwonder post=57009802]

I think Martinez19 's vast knowledge of advanced physics has made him disregard basic physics. When a large body attracts another smaller body in space, that's a FORCE of attraction! pEriod! All this upandan of spacetime doesn't change that fact. Whether the large mass acts/influences/tells on spacetime or objects around it, that is a force, why!? Cos it has the ability to influence the motion of the objects or space within its field. Every object in space would continue in its continuous motion or static phase unless it's being acted upon by another body. This involves interaction of forces/masses. That's sodding basic physics.

I've been following Martinez19 's discussion, He's said nothing to proof gravity is not a force. I tot I would learn something new. So disappointing

But To Be Candid Is The Earth Really Spherical? Spheres Are Known To Have Regular Shape But Looking Closely At The Earth, We Can See Its Shape Does Not Really Look Regular And Its Mass Is Not Centred In The Middle Which Is Characteristic Of Real Sphere. Saying The Earth Is A Sphere Is Like Saying An A4 Paper Is Rectangular In Shape Which Is False As It Is Infact A Cuboid. The Truth Is That Humans Like To Define And Relate Things That Look Complex And Abstract To Things They Are Familiar With Inorder To Avoid Complications. This Shows The Reason We Oftentimes 'Box' Or Shoehorn Things With Only Few Similarities Into The Same Group.
