Two identical particles of mass m are placed at a distance r from each other. If their separation is doubled, then the gravitational constant will
remain the same
becomes 1/4 of the original one
be 4 times larger
becomes doubled
The force of attraction between two bodies at a certain separation is 10N. What will be the force of attraction between them if the separation between them is reduced to half?
(a)
On the surface of the earth, the force of gravitational attraction between two masses kept at distance d apart is 6N. If these two masses are taken to the surface of the moon and kept at the same distance d, the force between them will be:
6 N
1 N
36 N
1/6 N
Two particles are placed at some distance and the magnitude of gravitational force between them is F. If the mass of each of the two particles is doubled, keeping the distance between them unchanged, the new value of gravitational force, in terms of F, between them will be:
(a)
G=6.6×10−11 .
Two point masses each equal to 1 kg attract one another with force of 10−10 N. The distance between the two point masses is
