How to use "Relentless" in context?
There are few things in the world that are as relentless as the force of gravity. This omnipresent force is what keeps objects in orbit around Earth, keeps the ocean tides flowing, and determines the movement of objects in the vacuum of space. Understanding how gravity works is essential to understanding both the natural world and the universe beyond.
Gravity is a result of the interactions between masses and the Almighty Force. The more mass an object has, the more gravity it has. The force of gravity is proportional to the mass and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two masses.
