I hope this doesn't seem like a silly question.
On earth, mass is attracted towards the center, we are told.
But, if you draw a line towards the center of the earth, isn't there MORE mass if you keep drawing the line to the opposite side?
That is, are we being attracted to the center of the Earth only, OR to its opposite side through the center?
Hope this doesn't mess with you head as much as it does mine.
