6.5 Gravity Around a Perfect Ball

Let us sum up what we learned about gravity around a perfect ball of mass . Space-time bends in the following way:

1.At a place resting near the perfect ball, time will run more slowly by a factor , relative to a place resting sufficiently far away from the perfect ball.

2.This factor belongs to the speed that the clock reaches here, after free-falling vertically from a place at rest sufficiently far away from the perfect ball.

3.This factor depends only on the radius. Far outside, is one. The smaller the radius is outside the perfect ball, the smaller
