Why does gravity makes planets round shaped?
Clara AvalosA sphere is the minimum average surface area for a solid volume. Natural processes tend towards the lowest energy state (entropy).
If one considers the gravitational force to be a point source, then an effective gravitational "center of mass" can be established by a collection of points.
Agglomerating particles will therefore form spherical clumps as opposed to triangles or rectangles in an effort to reduce the energy potential between the bodies.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
