Gravity Quiz

Gravity is a fundamental interaction that causes mutual attraction between all things that have mass.

Gravity is approximately 1038 times weaker than the strong interaction, 1036 times weaker than the electromagnetic force, and 1029 times weaker than the weak interaction.

Gravity determines the motion of planets, stars, galaxies, and even light at the macroscopic scale.
