Explanation

$ {T_2 \over T_1 } = \left( {r_1 \over r_2} \right ) ^ {3/2} \Rightarrow T_2 = 24 \left( {6400 \over 3600} \right)^{3/2} = 2hours $

............... and ............... law’s are called inverse square law

Explanation

The gravitational law (Newton's law of gravitation) and Coulomb's law (which describes the force between two charges) are both inverse square laws. This means that the force decreases proportionally to the square of the distance between the two objects or charges.

Which property of object is responsible for the Gravitational force.

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

The gravitational force between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers. This relationship is described by Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation. Hence, mass is the property responsible for gravitational force.

How much times is the electromagnatic force stronger then Gravitational force

Explanation

$ {Electronmagnetic force \over Gravational force} = {10 ^ {-2} \over 10 ^ {-38 } } = 10 ^ {36 } $

Who has unified terrestrial and celestial domains under a common law of Gravitational

Explanation

Sir Isaac Newton is known for unifying the terrestrial and celestial domains under a common law of gravitation. Newton's law of universal gravitation states that every mass attracts every other mass in the universe with a force that is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers.

If distance of the earth becomes three times that of the present distance from the sun then number of days in one year will be ….

$ { T_2 ^ 2 \over T_1^2 } = { r_2^3 \over r_1^3 } $

The gravitational field due to a mass distribution is given by I= kx2i^, where k is a constant. Assuming the potential to be zero at infinity, find the potential at a point x = a. [This question is only for Dropper and XII batch]

We know, 

dV=-I.dr         dV=-kx2dx         dV=-k dxx2            V=kx+C

When x = , V=0  C=0

  V=kx        At x = a, V= ka
