gravitational field |
Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Wikipedia | 0.04 sec. |
gravitational fieldRegion around a body in which other bodies experience a force due to its gravitational attraction. The gravitational field of a massive object such as the Earth is very strong and easily recognized as the force of gravity, whereas that of an object of much smaller mass is very weak and difficult to detect. Gravitational fields produce only attractive forces. |
