state and explain the Newton's law of gravitation
Hi! Newton's law of universal gravitation states that each and every particle in the universe attracts every other particle in the universe with a force which is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers.
In mathematical terms,
Let F be force.
Then F is directly proportional to M1 and M2, where M1 and M2 are the respective masses of the two bodies.
Also, F is inversely proportional to r^2 ( where r is the distance between the the two masses)
Then F= G*M1*M2/(r^2)
Here, G is the constant of proportionality, the Gravtiation Constant. Hope this helps!
hello aspirant,
newtons law of gravitation says that any particle of matter in the universe attracts any other particle with force varying directly to product of masses and inversely proportional to square of distance between them
hope this helps,
thankyou.
