Gravitas

Posted by Lew on June 18, 2017 at 10:07:01:
Perhaps my statement that gravity has nothing to do with "this" was an oversimplification. Gravity has everything to do with weight, of course. But I think the OP was asking whether the potential analogy of a tiptoe to a diode had to do with an effect of gravity on energy flow, as in the notion that gravity is somehow pulling energy down and preventing energy from moving up into the supported device. I may have misunderstood the OP's question about gravity, but my answer to that latter hypothesis is "no". Is that better?
