What is the importance of the universal law of gravitation?
State the universal law of gravitation. Name the scientist who gave this law.
Universal law of gravitation states that every object exerts a gravitational force of attraction on every other object. If this is true, why don’t we notice such forces ? Why don’t the two objects in a room move towards each other due to this force ?
Four particles of equal masses M move along a circle of radius R under the action of their mutual gravitational attraction. Find the speed of each particle.
Two small bodies of masses 10 kg and 20 kg are kept a distance 1.0 m apart and released. Assuming that only mutual gravitational forces are acting, find the speeds of the particles when the separation decreases to 0.5 m.
A semicircular wire has a length L and mass M. A particle of mass m is placed at the centre of the circle. Find the gravitational attraction on the particle due to the wire.
A solid sphere of mass m and radius r is placed inside a hollow thin spherical shell of mass M and radius R as shown in the following figure . A particle of mass m' is placed on the line joining the two centres at a distance x from the point of contact of the sphere and the shell. Find the magnitude of the resultant gravitational force on this particle due to the sphere and the shell if (a) r < x < 2r, (b) 2r < x < 2R and (c) x > 2R.
Write an expression for the gravitational force of attraction between two bodies of masses m1 and m2 separated by a distance r.
Define one Newton. How much maximum acceleration can it produce in a mass of 1 kg?
Where will you weigh more: at the moon's surface or at the earth's surface?
At what height above the earth's surface would the value of acceleration due to gravity be half of what it is on the surface? Take the radius of earth to be R.
Why does a ball moving on a table top eventually stops?
Explain why:
The atmosphere does not escape.
The gravitational force between two bodies is directly proportional to the product of the masses of those bodies and is _______ of the distance between them.
The force of gravitation between two bodies of mass 1 kg each separated by a distance of 1 m in vacuum is ____________.
Particles of masses 2M, m and M are respectively at points A, B and C with AB = ½ (BC). m is much-much smaller than M and at time t = 0, they are all at rest (Figure). At subsequent times before any collision takes place ______.
Shown are several curves (Figure). Explain with reason, which ones amongst them can be possible trajectories traced by a projectile (neglect air friction).
