ELECTRIC FIELDS




@STUDYNOTESBYM

, D) GRAVITATIONAL AND ELECTRIC FIELDS

1. GRAVITATIONAL FIELDS

NEWTON’S LAW OF UNIVERSAL GRAVITATION

Every particle with mass in the universe attracts every other particle with a force which is
directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the
square of the distance between their centres


𝒎𝟏 𝒎𝟐
𝑭=𝑮
𝒓𝟐
F: force of gravitational attraction (N)

G: gravitational constant = 6,7 × 10−11
m1: mass of object 1
m2: mass of object 2
r: distance between their centres



WEIGHT (Fg)
The gravitational force that the earth exerts on any object on or near its surface

W/Fg: gravitational force
(N)
m: mass of the object (kg)
g: gravitational
acceleration = 9,8m. s −2

• Weight is a force measured in Newtons
• It is determined by gravity
• The magnitude of weight depends on where the object is in the solar system



FORCE FIELDS

A region of space in which an object will experience a force
