an object which is projected vertically upwards falls again forwards the surface. why? distinguish between G and g
Answers
Answer:
An object which is projected vertically upwards fall again forward the surface due to gravitational force exerted by the earth.
Difference between G and g
________________
G
G is universal gravitational constant.
The value of G is constant for anywhere in universe.
The value of G is 6.67×10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2.
It is scalar quantity.
It's SI unit is Nm^2/kg^2
g
g is acceleration due to gravity.
The value of acceleration due to gravity ,g, is not constant at all the places on the surface of the earth.
It's Si unit is m/s^2.
It is vector quantity.
On earth the value of g is 9.8 m/s.
Since the radius of the earth at the pole is minimum , the value of g is maximum at the poles.The radius of the earth is maximum at the equator, so the value of g is minimum at the equator.
