Prive that SI unit of G is newton meter squre per kg squre
Answers
→ F = Gm1m2 / r^2
→ F * r^2 / m1m2 = G
→ G = N * m ^2 / kg^2
➠ So, G = N * m^2 / kg2 ( the unit of G is newton meter square per kilogram square ) .

Answer:
Newton's law of Universal Gravitation says that ``Every particle in the universe attracts every other with a force which is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of their separation.''
Thus; F = G M1M2 ------------(1)
R^2
Having in mind that the S.I unit of F = Newton(N) , R = distance of separation between masses(m) , M = mass of particle/object(Kg)
Then by cross multiplying and making G the subject of the formula in Equation ---(1) we get;
G = F.R^2 ---------(2)
M1M2
By using their base units, we obtain;
G = N.m^2 ---------(3)
Kg^2
Rewriting equation (3) properly yields; G = Nm^2 Kg^-2 ....hence it's S.I unit
