I'm not sure if this is appropriate for Big Bang/Cosmology, so I'll let the moderators decide:
Gravity is a property of mass and mass can be converted into energy. When this happens, where does the gravity go? Does it just stop? I'm trying to remember if this is part of the experiments regarding gravitational waves but my physics is fleeing from me and I don't quite know how to express is formally to go look it up.
I'm thinking it does just go away, but I'm wondering if there is a better physicist than I am who would know for certain. Since gravity is so weak, I doubt it could be felt on any sort of common level, but I'm still curious.
