Gravitational Field Intensity Quiz

Gravitational Field Intensity

• The formula for the gravitational field intensity (E) is: E = G * (M / r^2)
• Where G is the universal gravitational constant, M is the mass of the object, and r is the distance from the center of the object

Dependence of Gravitational Field Intensity

• The gravitational field intensity depends on the mass of the object and the distance from the center of the object
• It is directly proportional to the mass of the object and inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the center of the object

Variation of Gravitational Field Intensity with Distance

• The gravitational field intensity varies inversely with the square of the distance from the center of the object
• As the distance from the center of the object increases, the gravitational field intensity decreases rapidly
