Question

What is the difference between g and G ?​

Answer 1

Acceleration due to gravity

g The acceleration experienced by a body under free fall due to the gravitational force of the massive body Changes from place to place.

Acceleration due to gravity of the earth is 9.8 m/s2

m/s2

Universal Gravitational Constant

G The force of attraction between two objects with unit mass separated by a unit distance at any part of this universe. Constant at any point in this universe.

G = 6.673×10-11 Nm2/kg2

Nm2/kg2

Explanation:

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

Answer:

The g means the state of free fall. It varies from place to place. The G means the universal gravitational constant.

Explanation:

G is universal gravitation constant whose approximately value is 6.673×10−11 N. On the other hand "g" is accelaration due to gravity whose value is 9.8 meter per second2
