Equation Of Law Of Gravitation
The equation for universal gravitation is-
where:
- F denotes the force between the masses;
- G denotes the gravitational constant (6.674×10−11 m3⋅kg−1⋅s−2);
- m1 denotes the first mass
- m2 denotes the second mass
- r denotes the distance between the centers of the masses.
Newton's Law Of Gravitation Applies to:
Newton's law of gravitation applies to all pairs of bodies in the universe. Newton's gravity description is accurate for many practical purposes and is widely used. Any deviations from it are small when the dimensionless quantities ∅/c2 and (v/c)2 are much less than one, where ∅ is the gravitational potential,v2 is the velocity of the objects being studied, and C is the speed of light in a vacuum.
