The following post lays out the groundwork for an explanation of the force of gravity. It starts with the rationale for why a force that attracts matter to itself must exist, moves on to the details of how such a force must act, and culminates with a rough derivation of Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation. At the end there is a brief addendum on the laws of conservation of energy and angular momentum that must be obeyed by two objects under the force of gravity. This is in PDF format because Wix hates LaTeX.
hey! this is pretty wild but have you considered rendering the LaTeX as images using something like TeXeR and uploading those to Wix instead? you've probably already thought of it but just tryna help lol
