Question

Difference between capital G and small g in physics

Answer 1

G= universal gravitation constant...

g= accelaration due to gravity...

 

G-

1. gravitational constant

2. scalar quantity

3. nkgm s2

4. it cannot be 0

5. it is the same at every place on earth

g-

1. acceleration due to gravity....

2. vector quantity..

3. m/s2...

4. it can be 0 at the centre of the earth..

5. it is not the same in all places. it difers from place to place...

Answer 2

G-universal gravitational constant =6.67x10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2
g- acceleration due to gravity =9.8m/s^2
