NEET Physics Universal Law of Gravitation MCQ Question
Consider a diagram showing two particles of masses m1 and m2 separated by a distance r. Which of the following correctly represents the expression for the gravitational force of attraction between them?

F = G * (m1 * m2) / r^2
F = G * (m1 + m2) / r^2
F = G * (m1 * m2) / r
F = G * (m1 * m2) * r^2
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to Newton's law of universal gravitation, the gravitational force between two masses m1 and m2 separated by a distance r is given by F = G * (m1 * m2) / r^2, where G is the universal gravitational constant.
