* Program name : Gravity force *
* Program ver. : 2.0 *
* Created by : SharpDevelop *
* Code author : Perić Željko *
* Code language : C# *
* Date created : 03.02.2012 *
* Time created : 15:22 *
* *
* *
* Program Description : *
* *
* Simple console application for calculating strength of gravity force ( F ) , *
* between two celestial bodies with known masses ( M and m ) , *
* and known distance between centers of body masses ( r ). *
* *
* Math formula : F = M * m * G / r ^ 2 *
* *
* Try to calculate gravity force between Sun and Earth. *
* *
* Mass of Sun M = 1,99 e+30 Kg *
* Mass of Earth m = 5,98 e+24 Kg *
* Distance r = 1,5 e+11 m *
* Gravity constant G = 6,67 e-11 N * m^2 / Kg^2 *
* *
* Result should be F = 3,527748177777778 e+22 N (newton) N = Kg * m / s^2 *
* *
* This result presumes ideal condition , that there are only these two bodies *
* in universe with no other forces of any kind that can influence them. *
* *
* Program accepts scientific format for large and small numbers. *
* *
* 4,3 e+5 = 4,3 * (10 ^ 5) = 4 300 000 e+5 stands for 10 raised to +5th power *
* *
* 587 e-5 = 587 * (10 ^-5) = 0,00587 e-5 stands for 10 raised to -5th power *
* *
* To enter such number , just type in 4,3e+5 or 587e-5. *
* *
* Number range that this program accept is from 1,7 e-308 up to 1,7 e+308 *
* *
* Program Accuracy Notice : *
* *
* All calculations in program are executed using double type of variable. *
* By default , a double value contains 15 decimal digits of precision , *
* although a maximum of 17 digits is maintained internally. *
* Result is shown in scientific format , rounded at fourteen decimals. *
* This could cause fatal error because , in some cases for accurate result , *
* many more digits are significant , especially when very large or very small *
* numbers are involved. *
* *
* Gravity constant value is rounded at two decimal places , *
* and usually input values that user type in , have it's own precision error... *
* *
* So the result that this program gives is always approximate and never 100 % accurate ! *
* *
* *
* All the best, *
* Author. *
