प्रश्न
Choose the correct alternative:
Acceleration due to gravity is independent of mass of the earth/mass of the body.
उत्तर
Mass of the body
Acceleration due to gravity of body of mass m is given by the relation:
g = `"GM"/R^2`
Where,
G = Universal gravitational constant
M = Mass of the Earth
R = Radius of the Earth
Hence, it can be inferred that acceleration due to gravity is independent of the mass of the body.
