Obtain an expression for Gravitational field intensity measured with an object of unit mass. |

Answer» Solution :`vec(F_m) = m vec(E)` Now we can equate this with Newton's second LAW `vec(F) = m vec(a)` `m vec(a) = m vec(E)` `vec(a) = vec(E)` In other words, equation IMPLIES that the gravitational FIELD at a point is equivalent to the acceleration experienced by a particle at that point. HOWEVER, it is to be noted `vec(a)` that and `vec(E)` are separete physical quantities that have the same magnitude are direction. |
