How did Einstein's theory of general relativity revolutionize our understanding of gravity?
—Einstein's theory explained that gravity is the result of warped space-time caused by massive objects, like the Sun. It provided a deeper understanding of the universe.
What did Einstein's theory of general relativity challenge?
—Einstein's theory challenged Newton's ideas about gravity and provided a more accurate explanation.
What is the significance of Einstein's theory of general relativity?
—Einstein's theory revolutionized the field of physics and laid the foundation for our modern understanding of gravity and the universe.
How does general relativity explain the motion of planets and celestial bodies?
—According to general relativity, the motion of planets and celestial bodies is determined by the curved space-time around them, caused by their mass.
What other effects does general relativity have?
—General relativity also affects the flow of time and the bending of light, leading to phenomena such as time dilation and gravitational lensing.
