Questions and Answers

What is the universal law of gravitation?

  • The force of attraction between any two particles in the universe is directly proportional to the square of the distance between them.
  • The force of attraction between any two particles in the universe is inversely proportional to the product of the masses and directly proportional to the square of the distance between them.
  • The force of attraction between any two particles in the universe is directly proportional to the product of the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. (correct)
  • The force of attraction between any two particles in the universe is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
  • What is the formula for the force of attraction between two masses, m1 and m2, at a distance of d?

  • $F = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{d}$
  • $F = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{d^2}$ (correct)
  • $F = G(m_1m_2d^2)$
  • $F = G\sqrt{\frac{m_1}{m_2d}}$

    Study Notes

    Universal Law of Gravitation

    • The universal law of gravitation states that every particle in the universe attracts every other particle with a force that is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers.
    • The force of attraction between two masses, m1 and m2, at a distance of d is given by the formula: F = G * (m1 * m2) / d^2
    • G is the universal gravitational constant, which has a value of 6.674 x 10^-11 N m^2/kg^2.
    • This means that the force of attraction between two objects increases with the increase in their masses and decreases with the increase in the distance between them.
    • Newton used the law of gravitation to explain the motion of planets, moons, and other celestial bodies.
