Option 3 : One ninth of previous force India's Super Teachers for all govt. exams Under One Roof
The correct answer is option 3) i.e. One-ninth of the previous force CONCEPT:
\(F = \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}}\)F=Gm1m2r2 Where, F = Force of gravitation between the objects m1 = Mass of one of the objects m2 = Mass of the second object, r = Distance between the centres of the two objects, G = Universal gravitational constant EXPLANATION:
CALCULATION: Let, the mass of the two bodies be m1 and m2 respectively and the distance between their centers be r. Then, the gravitational force between them is given by: \(F = \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}}\) Now, when the distance between them is made three times, the gravitational force will be: \(F^{'} = \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{(3r)^{2}}\) ⇒\(F^{'} = \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{9r^{2}}\) ⇒\(F^{'} = \frac{F}{9}\) India’s #1 Learning Platform Start Complete Exam Preparation
