As I understand it, gravity bends space. So all things, even light - and presumably all electromagnetic radiation, are affected by gravity. I would guess then that all forms of energy affected by gravity. If so, than HEAT energy would be affected by gravity. Is the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance affected by gravity? If it is, then a hot brick would weigh more than a cold one, although I suspect the difference would impossible or nearly impossible to measure. What do you think?
