FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the law of universal gravitation?

Back

The law of universal gravitation states that every point mass attracts every other point mass in the universe with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How does distance affect gravitational force?

Back

Gravitational force decreases as the distance between two objects increases. Specifically, if the distance is doubled, the gravitational force decreases by a factor of 4.

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What happens to gravitational force if the mass of one object is doubled?

Back

If the mass of one object is doubled, the gravitational force between the two objects also doubles.

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

Define gravitational force.

Back

Gravitational force is the attractive force that exists between any two masses, which pulls them toward each other.

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the formula for calculating gravitational force?

Back

The formula for gravitational force (F) is F = G * (m1 * m2) / r^2, where G is the gravitational constant, m1 and m2 are the masses of the objects, and r is the distance between their centers.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the gravitational constant (G)?

Back

The gravitational constant (G) is a fundamental physical constant used in the calculation of gravitational force, approximately equal to 6.674 × 10^-11 N(m/kg)^2.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

Explain the concept of weight in relation to gravity.

Back

Weight is the force exerted by gravity on an object, calculated as the product of the object's mass and the acceleration due to gravity (W = m * g).
