GRAVITATION THE UNIVERSAL LAW OF GRAVITATION

INTRODUCTION  An object changes its speed or direction of motion only when a force is applied on it.

Force and Acceleration  Application of the force accelerates the object. Here a tennis player hits a ball and see the ball is moving very fast and its direction of motion is also changing.

Why is it that when we jump we always land on the earth, and do not remain suspended or move upwards? WHERE DO WE ALWAYS FALL ?

What makes us to fall on the earth always?  There is always some force acting on us that guides our direction of falling.  No matter from where ever we jump, or we drop objects from anywhere they will always fall towards the earth.

What makes the apple to always fall on the earth? It was Isaac Newton who posed this question and answered it. Newton stated that all objects attract each other along the line joining their centers.

Every object in the universe attracts every other object towards itself This force with which the two objects attract each other is called the force of gravitation The force of gravitation acts even if there is nothing connecting the two objects.

The Universal Law of Gravitation  Newton did not stop after proposing that a force of gravitation exists. He expressed the law in a clear and precise language- the language of mathematics.

The Universal Law of Gravitation states that  Any two point particles with masses m 1 and m 2 attract each other by a force whose magnitude is directly proportional to the product of the two masses, that is m 1 m 2 and inversely proportional to the square of the distance R between them. The direction of the force is along the line joining the two masses.

In the mathematical form the law can be represented as …

In the expression G is a gravitational constant. It does not depend on the value of masses or the distance between the masses. The constant G will remain the same for any two objects anywhere in the Universe. Value of G is x Nm 2 / kg 2

Uses of Gravitation  It is the gravitational force that keep everything at its place. Otherwise we would have been floating in the air. It is due to gravitation that we are walking on the Earth. Weightlessness in space vehicle

Uses of Gravitation contd..  It also keeps the earth, sun and other celestial bodies at their right places

Uses of Gravitation contd..  It is responsible for many natural phenomenon on the earths like tides and orbiting of moon around the earth.
