उत्तर
- Definition: Gravitational force is a natural force that pulls two objects toward each other. It's the reason why objects fall to the ground on Earth and why planets orbit around the Sun.
- How it Works: The larger the mass of an object, the stronger its gravitational pull. That’s why Earth’s gravity is stronger than the gravity of a small object like a pebble.
- Examples: The force that keeps us from floating into space, The reason planets stay in orbit around the Sun.
- Importance: Gravitational force is essential for maintaining the structure of the universe. Without it, everything would drift apart!
