A gravitational field is a region of space surrounding a mass where another mass experiences a force of attraction due to gravity. It is represented as a vector field, indicating both the direction and strength of the gravitational force that would act on a test mass placed within that field. This concept connects to various principles of physics, including how forces are represented using vectors and how potential energy is related to conservative vector fields.
