What is the importance of the universal law of gravitation?
उत्तर
The importance of the universal law of gravitation is as follows:
- Through this law, we can find the mass of the earth, sun, etc.
- Using this law, the distance between planets and other bodies is found.
- Due to this force, the moon moves around the earth.
- It is understood from this law that the tides in the sea occur due to the moon and the sun.

Answer the following:
You can shield a charge from electrical forces by putting it inside a hollow conductor. Can you shield a body from the gravitational influence of nearby matter by putting it inside a hollow sphere or by some other means?
If you compare the gravitational force on the Earth due to the Sun to that due to the Moon, you would find that the Sun’s pull is greater than the Moon’s pull. (You can check this yourself using the data available in the succeeding exercises). However, the tidal effect of the Moon’s pull is greater than the tidal effect of Sun. Why?
