    • Stability of the Objects. The objects present on the surface of the earth do not levitate or float in the air. This is because of the presence of the gravitational force present between the objects and the earth.
    • Tides. Tides are the short term periodic rise and fall of water in oceans. These large waves are caused in the oceans due to the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun exerted on the water present in oceans.
    • Daily Life Activities. A number of daily life activities involve the application of gravitational force. For example, playing, sliding, jumping, running, etc.
    • Revolution of Celestial Bodies. The celestial bodies present in space revolve around the sun and rotate at their respective axis. The force which is accountable for the proper alignment and revolution of planets around the sun is the gravitational force.
  2. Feb 3, 2023 · Universal Laws of Gravitation. General Formula for Gravitational Force. Suppose M1 and M2 be the masses of the two bodies, and R be the distance of separation between their centers. The following equation gives the gravitational force between the two objects.

  3. Law of Universal Gravitation: Newton’s genius extended to celestial mechanics with the Law of Universal Gravitation, which states that every mass attracts every other 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 them.

  4. For two bodies having masses \ (m\) and \ (M\) with a distance \ (r\) between their centers of mass, the equation for Newton’s universal law of gravitation is \ [ F = G\dfrac {mM} {r^2},\] where \ (F\) is the magnitude of the gravitational force and \ (G\) is a proportionality factor called the gravitational constant.

  6. Mar 12, 2024 · Newtons law of gravitation takes Galileo’s observation that all masses fall with the same acceleration a step further, explaining the observation in terms of a force that causes objects to fall—in fact, in terms of a universally existing force of attraction between masses.
