NEET Physics Universal Law of Gravitation Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Gravitational constant | (i) 6.672 × 10^-11 N m²/kg² |
| (b) Universal Law of Gravitation | (ii) Directly proportional to the product of masses |
| (c) Gravitational force | (iii) Inversely proportional to the square of distance |
| (d) Resultant force | (iv) Vector sum of individual forces |
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
a-iii, b-iv, c-i, d-ii
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The gravitational constant is indeed 6.672 × 10^-11 N m²/kg² (Column-II, i), the Universal Law of Gravitation states that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of masses (Column-II, ii), and it is inversely proportional to the square of the distance (Column-II, iii). The resultant force is correctly described as the vector sum of individual forces (Column-II, iv).
