gravities
Forces pulling downward
Gravities is the plural of gravity.
The word has two main senses: the physical force that attracts objects toward each other, and seriousness or solemnity of manner.
In physics, gravities often refers to units of gravitational acceleration: The astronauts experienced three gravities during launch.
The plural also appears when comparing gravitational forces across different bodies: the varying gravities of planets in our solar system.
