प्रश्न
Can you think of two particles which do not exert gravitational force on each other?

उत्तर
No. All practicals which have mass exert gravitational force on each other. Even massless particles experience the same gravitational force like other particles, because they do have relativistic mass.

Solve the following problem.
Calculate the acceleration due to gravity at a height of 300 km from the surface of the Earth. (M = 5.98 × 1024 kg, R = 6400 km).
For the weight of body of mass 5 kg to be zero on equator of the earth, angular velocity of the earth must be (The radius of earth = 6400 km, acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s2).
Different points in earth are at slightly different distances from the sun and hence experience different forces due to gravitation. For a rigid body, we know that if various forces act at various points in it, the resultant motion is as if a net force acts on the c.m. (centre of mass) causing translation and a net torque at the c.m. causing rotation around an axis through the c.m. For the earth-sun system (approximating the earth as a uniform density sphere).
