NEET Physics Universal Law of Gravitation MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-diagram based-Medium-Class 11

Consider a diagram showing two masses, m1 and m2, separated by a distance r with arrows representing the forces between them. Which of the following correctly represents the magnitude of the gravitational force between these two masses?

Question diagram
A

F = G * (m1 * m2) / r^2

B

F = G * (m1 + m2) / r

C

F = G * (m1 * m2) * r

D

F = G * (m1 - m2) / r^2

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation, the force between two masses is given by F = G * (m1 * m2) / r^2, where G is the universal gravitational constant.
