Abstract
In a recent article, we have corrected the traditional derivation of the Schwarzschild metric, thus obtaining the formulation of the correct Schwarzschild metric, which is different from the traditional Schwarzschild metric. In this article, by starting from this correct Schwarzschild metric, we obtain the formulas of the correct gravitational potential and of the correct gravitational force in the case described by this metric. Moreover, we analyse these correct results and their consequences. Finally, we propose some possible crucial experiments between the commonly accepted theory and the same theory corrected according to this article.
