We can't all be astronauts.

  But if you are holding hands then r² becomes zero and the force of attraction is infinite.

    Take the center of mass at that point. Can’t be 0 because atoms have widths.

      Well we need to dive in quantum physics if we are going that deep, no?

      If clothing can have 00 sizes then so can anything.

      Yup. As I said in another comment, you are not a point mass. The amount of your and her flesh that’s atom-width close is an astronomically small fraction of the total weight, no matter how close you cuddle, and this fraction gets squared because there are 2 bodies. (It’s an integral over two volumes – in layman’s terms, an atom in your hand feels strong (for an atom) attraction to an atom on her hand, but not her head even if your heads also touch.)

    If you’re holding hands tight enough that you can feel it at all, you’re already exerting more than 2 milliNewtons of force.

  there’s an Avatar: The Last Airbender joke somewhere here, but i haven’t seen the show in some time and don’t remember what the joke is about

  An r of 1.3mm or less will make it so you are more attractive than the moon!

      I learned three things in physics:

      1. You can’t push a rope

      B) Cows can be assumed to be spherical

      III) Everything exists as a point mass. The Earth is a point mass, electrons are point masses, the aforementioned spherical cows are point masses…

      In other words, if you’re really deep inside her, her attraction to you will be stronger than to the moon.

      Giggity 😏

  r=2m, not 1m?

  source

  • NateNate60@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    r = 50 m by court order, but m~2~ is also now 135 kg.

  Try to be between her and the moon. Both your attractions will act in somewhat the same direction. Or at least F^→^~moon~ • F^→^~me~ > 0

    How do you get LaTeX in the comment?

    source

    • Iron_Lynx@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Correct, careful use of Unicode and Markdown. If it were LaTeX, the arrows would have been directly overhead those F’s

  Don’t italicize units and constants.

  source

  • sga@piefed.social ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    they kinda are not. it is most likely typeset in latex, where in equation mode all letters by default get italicised. and it is kinda accpeted as appropriate typesetting.

    source

    • ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Well, it’s not appropriate typesseting. Unlike unknowns and constants (𝑥, 𝑐), units need to be manually unitalicized. In DOCX, this also prevents wide kerning (which is OK for several multiplied constants/unknowns but not multi-letter units). I only use serif italics for liter (𝑙), and only outside equations (it’s not SI base anyway), because I think a simple “l” can be confused with “I” or “1” while the alternatives (L, ℓ) look terrible in typesetting.

  Is the Sun’s even stronger or did I fuck up something using my phone’s calculator? I got 0.35
