Does Gravity Exist At Absolute Zero?

[ #202732 ]

Tuesday May 13, @09:08AM

The phenomenon known as Absolute zero causes all molecular motion to cease. With that being the case, they no longer have any energy. So, does that mean that they no longer contribute to the force of gravity? I would say that as molecuar motion ceases, so to does gravity. By that definition, so does magnetism, and the strong and the weak nuclear force.

As long as there is mass, there seems to be gravitation. You wouldn't expect something at absolute zero to suddenly become inertialess too, would you? It's hard to say if the concept of molecular motion even has meaning within the event horizon of a black hole, but it certainly still has gravitation.
