Source sentences:
text: In addition to Gauss's law, the assumption is used that g is irrotational (has zero curl), as gravity is a conservative force:
text: Since the gravitational field has zero curl (equivalently, gravity is a conservative force) as mentioned above, it can be written as the gradient of a scalar potential, called the gravitational potential:
