Question

distinguish between g and G physics 3 points of difference
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Acceleration due to gravity (g)

1. The acceleration produced in a body freely falling under the gravitational pull of the Earth is known as gravitational due to gravity.

2. The value of 'g' is different at different places on the Earth.

3. The value of 'g' on the surface of Earth is 9.8 m/s².

Universal Gravitational Constant (G)

1. The gravitational force between two bodies of unit masses separated by a unit distance is known as Universal Gravitational Constant.

2. The value of 'G' is same at all the places on the Earth.

3. The value of 'G' = 6.67 X 10⁻¹¹ Nm² / kg² throughout the universe.
