| 11. | This constant will be determined by requiring the theory to reduce to Newton's law of gravitation in the nonrelativistic limit.
|
| 12. | His work there included experiments in microwave spectroscopy and tests of the inverse square law of gravitation at short distances.
|
| 13. | In 1859, Urbain Le Verrier discovered that the orbital precession of the planet Newton's inverse-square law of gravitation was incorrect.
|
| 14. | Instead of the possibly apocryphal apple triggering the Universal Law of Gravitation, a madeleine sets off a universal law of recollection.
|
| 15. | The upheaval was accompanied by a number of major scientific advances, including Robert Boyle's discovery of the universal law of gravitation.
|
| 16. | Newton's law of gravitation soon became accepted because it gave very accurate predictions of the apsidal precessions of all the planets.
|
| 17. | Newton s law of gravitation, as he expounded it, is no less a creation of his mind than Beethoven s 5th symphony.
|
| 18. | I suppose the more fundamental question is : where is this energy coming from that " enforces " the law of gravitation?
|
| 19. | Having determined r, the velocity of the planet around the star can be calculated using Newton's law of gravitation, and the orbit equation:
|
| 20. | His main achievement was to mathematically derive Kepler's laws of planetary motion from the law of gravitation, thus helping to prove the latter.
