The dented rubber sheet done in earth s gravity is a not too bad analogy for newtonian gravity.
Gravity rubber sheet.

This walking is the analogy to moving forward in time.
The tolerance level of these sheets are 10 on thickness 2 on width 5 on length.
The object stretches the rubber to make a parabolic indentation and if you introduce say a marble it will.
The magnitude of the acceleration is a little larger at the poles than at the equator because earth is an oblate spheroid.
Let me try the ant analogy in a bit more detail.
An often used analogy is a sheet of rubber with a heavy object placed in the middle.
Range of rubber sheet the prominent range of jagruti rubber sheet are pure rubber sheeting skirt board rubber insertion sheeting rubber lagging sheet in plain and diamond type electrical resistant rubber sheet packing sheet gum sheeting hospital sheeting sponge sheet foam sheet pulley lagging sheet food grade white sheet impression sheet rubberized cork sheet balata sheet.
Rubber sheets with tighter tolerances are available on request.
Natural rubber sheet are manufactured in standard width of 1 2m length of 10m for thickness up to 10mm and 2 4m 5 0m for thickness up to 50mm.
Please consult a physics teacher for a more complete explanation.
On the surface of the earth the acceleration is given by so called standard gravity g approximately 9 8 m s 2 although this value varies slightly with latitude and altitude.
Instructions to make your own gravity well ar.
So the motion of a marble on a deformed rubber sheet is entirely unlike the motion of a plant around star or any small object moving around a large one under the force of gravity.
