State Newton's law of gravitation. What is the difference between:
g and G?
Advertisements
उत्तर
Newton law of gravitation is that every object in the universe attracts every other object with a force directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
'g' is the acceleration due to earth's gravity and 'G' is universal gravitational constant.
