Gravity is...

• the force of attraction between any two objects

• the force of attraction and repulsion between like and unlike poles

• any phenomenon associated with stationary or moving electrons,ions or other charged particles

• the force that attracts a body toward the center of the earth, or toward any other physical body having mass.
