Stored Gravitational Energy Density

`"Gravitational"_(ed) = -1/(8piG)|g|^2`
`(g)"gravitational field vector"`
Tags

The Stored Gravitational Energy is found using  the following formula:  `"Stored Energy" = -1/(8piG)|g|^2` where:

  • Stored Energy = directly proportional to the square of the field strength in all cases
  • `pi`= 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288
  • `G` = Gravitational constant (6.67384E-11 N·m²/kg²)
  • `g` = gravitational field vector
