1.

state Newton's law of gravitation. what is the relation between ‘g' and ‘cr'.find the time taken by the body protected vertically up with a speed of ‘u' to return back to the ground

Answer»

G stands for Newton's universal gravitational constant, whereas g stands for the acceleration due to gravity at a certain point.G = 6.67300 × 10-11 G is a constant throughout space and time and it is a scalar quantity.g = 9.8 m.s

-2

, g is acceleration due to gravity which is a variable quantity and a vector qualtity.According to Newton's law of universal gravitation the force of attraction between two bodies is given byF = GMm/r2---------- (i)

From Newton's second law of motion the weight of a body of mass m is

F = mg -----------------(ii)

From (i) and (ii)mg = GMm/r2org = GM/r2
