Gravitational Field: The region of space around a body within which its gravitational force of attraction can be experienced is called the gravitational field. Mathematically it is extended to infinity.…
The universality of the law of gravitation Newton's law of gravitation is equally valid for anybody whether it is small or large. This law does not depend on the states…
Characteristics of gravitational force : Since the gravitational force act along the line joining the particles, it is a central force and so gravitational field is conservative.Gravitational force is only…
