Newton field

Newton field

In dynamics, a field that pulls objects towards it. It is based on the principle that a mutual attractive force exists between any two objects in the universe, proportional to the product of their masses. As the distance between the objects increases, the force of the field decreases. Use Newton fields to create orbiting planets or tethered, colliding balls, for example.
