description | Regarding the gravity description, the high school education in Colombia, and in many other countries, does not go beyond the Newton’s universal gravitation law, in most of the cases complemented with the story of Newton and the falling apple. One segment of this population know, additionally, that the most accepted gravity theory nowadays is Einstein’s general relativity, which generalizes the universal gravitation law. It is usual, therefore, that most of the people without a professional education in Physics associate the gravitation universal law, and as an extension general relativity, with the falling apple. Exploiting this association, this article discusses whether the apple might be cubic, i.e., whether there exists some description of the gravitational force that generalizes Einstein’s and that is well motivated and consistent with the most recent measurements |

One segment of this population know, additionally, that the most accepted gravity theory nowadays is Einstein’s general relativity, which generalizes the universal gravitation law.

Un segmento de esta población conoce, adicionalmente, que la teoría de la gravitación más aceptada actualmente es la relatividad general de Einstein, la cual generaliza la ley de gravitación universal. Es usual, por lo tanto, que la mayoría de personas sin una formación profesional en Física asocien la ley de gravitación universal, y por extensión la relatividad general, con la manzana cayendo. Explotando esta asociación, se discute en este artículo si la manzana podría ser cúbica, es decir, si existe alguna descripción de la fuerza gravitacional que generalice a la de Einstein y que sea bien motivada y consistente con las mediciones más recientes. 2020-03-20 2024-10-10T02:55:03Z 2024-10-10T02:55:03Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Ciencias y actualidad http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501 http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85 https://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/saywa/article/view/693 https://repositorio.uan.edu.co/handle/123456789/11108 spa https://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/saywa/article/view/693/594 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2 application/pdf UNIVERSIDAD ANTONIO NARIÑO REVISTA SAYWA; Vol. 1 Núm. 2 (2019) 2744-8576 2711-1571 |
