| Mar 15 at 15:24 | comment | added | Atul | Simply because it is curved such that it has gradient slope hence we feel 'acceleration' as we go along the time. It is not linear slope. | |

| Jan 26, 2020 at 21:57 | comment | added | G. Smith | In curved spacetime, objects don’t accelerate under gravity. The acceleration in Newtonian gravity is an artifact of the coordinate systems we use for Newtonian mechanics. | |
