Probably like iron filings and magnets, the stronger magnet would have a bigger pile of iron filings on it.
Water isn't compressible, so the distribution would always give the stronger region more water.
- a1o 3y agoWater is dense and gravity is proportional to mass, I wonder if there's any chance that water itself is also a contributor to the perceived gravity at that region.
- kibwen 3y agoI don't think the mass of the water would have a very noticeable effect on the perceived gravity. The average depth of the ocean is about 4 km, whereas the radius of the Earth is 6,000 km, and stone is denser than water as well.
