Newton`s Laws and the Nature of Matter
... influence of the gravity of another mass. Gravity and Newton's laws explain orbits. In circular motion the acceleration is given by the expression a=V2/d where V is the velocity and d is the radius of the orbit. This is the centrifugal force you feel when you turn a corner at high speed: because of ...
