Mass Idea
Posted By: GrailCWB <grailcwb@mac.com>Date: 6/27/02 9:20 p.m.

In Response To: Re: will it go round in circles (Tru7h)

: forgot something, the mass idea dosent work, you would be puled towards the
: center of halo

Hmmm... simplifying the situation to 2 dimensions for the purposes of explanation, the high-density/mass idea might actually work. If there are two sources of gravity, both equal in pull, each pulling you towards themselves, you should be able to get it to work. If you started in the center, you would stay there, but if you started closer to a side, it would keep you near it. To illustrate:
A,B=Sources of gravity
Y=You
]=pull to left
[=pull to right

Ex. 1
A]]]]]Y[[[[[B
If you start in the center, both pulls are equall, and you'd be stuck there.

Ex. 2
A]-]-]-]-]-]YB
If you start close to a side (B) then you would be affected more by that side's pull (not pictured due to limits of ASCII) and the other side's (A) pull would be greatly lessened (spread out and weakened) due to the distance, even though both pulls have the same force.

Simply put, If to attractions are equal, whichever is closer to you will pull you in. I think what Tru7h may have been thinking about is being repelled, not attracted, because in that case, the further you got from the center the stronger you would be pushed back into it. I know that this is a two dimensional example, but in theory it applies to a circle as well, but I'm not going to make a ring and show the pulls of each part in ASCII...
