उत्तर
The importance of the universal law of gravitation is as follows:
- Through this law, we can find the mass of the earth, sun, etc.
- Using this law, the distance between planets and other bodies is found.
- Due to this force, the moon moves around the earth.
- It is understood from this law that the tides in the sea occur due to the moon and the sun.
