An apple falls because of the gravitational attraction to earth. how does the gravitational attraction of earth to the apple compare? (does force change when you interchange m1 and m2 in the equation for gravity - m2 m1 instead of m1 m2 ?)

Respuesta :

The forces between the apple and Earth are the same in magnitude. Force is the same either way, but the corresponding accelerations of each are different.

The value of the force can change when you interchange m and M in the equation for gravity.

What is Newton's law of gravitation?

Newton's law of gravity states that each particle having mass in the universe attracts each other particle with a force known as the gravitational force.

The gravitational force is proportional to the product of the masses of the two bodies and inversely proportional to the square of their distance.

[tex]\rm F =G \frac{mM}{R^2}[/tex]

Where,

F is the gravitational force

M is the mass of the earth

m is the mass of the apple

R is the radius of the earth

When mass increases and distance reduces, gravity rises. Gravity also lowers when the distance between two points grows and the mass decreases.

Hence, the value of the force can change when you interchange m and M in the equation for gravity.
