It is the weakest force, but there’s also a force named the weak force. It is many orders of magnitude stronger than gravity. But it’s not as strong as the strong force.
Technically, they’re weak nuclear and strong nuclear forces, but yeah, we love confusing names in physics. Like quark flavours, which include top and bottom

Gravity is different than the weak force.

A weak force? I know I’ve heard gravity described as the weakest force before… But I also got a D in physics so… 🤷🏻♂️

We should rename gravity to weakest force
