Type: MCQ-fact-Easy-Class 11

What is the gravitational potential energy associated with two particles separated by a distance r?

A

−(G m1 m2) / r

B

G m1 m2 / r

C

G m1 m2 r

D

−(G m1 m2) r

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The gravitational potential energy associated with two particles separated by a distance r is given by V = -G (m1 m2) / r, where V is taken to be zero at r → ∞.
