Name the scientist who explained the motion of planets on the basis of gravitational force between the sun and planets.
What name has been given to the force with which two objects lying apart attract each other ?
What is the actual shape of the orbit of a planet around the sun? What assumption was made by Newton regarding the shape of an orbit of a planet around the sun of deriving his inverse square rule from Kepler's third law of planetary motion?
The masses of the earth and moon are 6 × 1024 kg and 7.4 × 1022 kg, respectively. The distance between them is 3.8 × 105 km. Calculate the gravitational force of attraction between the two?
Use G = 6.7 × 10–11 N m2 kg–2
Describe how the gravitational force between two objects depends on the distance between them.
The value of quantity G in the formula for gravitational force:
The gravitational force of attraction between two objects is x. Keeping the masses of the objects unchanged, if the distance between the objects is halved, then the magnitude of gravitational force between them will become :
The value of acceleration due to gravity
An apple falls from a tree because of gravitational attraction between the earth and the apple. If F1 is the magnitude of the force exerted by the earth on the apple and F2 is the magnitude of the force exerted by the apple on earth, then
Give scientific reasons.
Any object on earth falls vertically downward and not at an angle to the vertical; nor fly off in a horizontal direction.
