NEET Physics Universal Law of Gravitation Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Gravitational Force (i) Inversely proportional to square of distance (b) Universal Gravitational Constant (ii) 6.672 × 10–11 N m²/kg² (c) Principle of Superposition (iii) Vector sum of individual forces (d) Force Direction (iv) Along the line joining the masses
Choose the correct matching:
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
a-iv, b-iii, c-i, d-ii
a-iii, b-iv, c-ii, d-i
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The gravitational force is defined to be inversely proportional to the square of the distance between two masses, with the universal gravitational constant being 6.672 × 10–11 N m²/kg². The principle of superposition indicates that the resultant gravitational force is the vector sum of individual forces acting on a mass, and the force direction is along the line joining the two masses.
