उत्तर
- Statement: Gravitational force between two bodies in the universe is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
- The mathematical equation for the law is given as, F = G`("m"_1"m"_2)/"r"^2` where G is universal gravitational constant, m1 and m2 are masses and r is the distance between two masses.

Mahendra and Virat are sitting at a distance of 1 m from each other.Their masses are 75 kg and 80 kg respectively. What is the gravitational force between them? (G = 6.67 × 10-11 Nm2/kg2)
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).
Law of gravitation gives the gravitational force between
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).
