State any one phenomenon related to the universal law of gravitation.
(N/A) One common phenomenon related to the universal law of gravitation is the motion of planets around the Sun. According to Newton's law of universal gravitation,every particle of matter in the universe attracts every other particle with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. This gravitational force provides the necessary centripetal force that keeps planets in their respective orbits around the Sun.

View Solution$(i)$ How is the force of attraction dependent on the masses of objects and the distance between them?
$(ii)$ The mass of the Earth is $6 \times 10^{24} \, kg$ and that of a natural satellite is $6.5 \times 10^{20} \, kg$. If the distance between them is $3.35 \times 10^{6} \, km$, calculate the force exerted by the Earth on it. $(G = 6.7 \times 10^{-11} \, Nm^{2} kg^{-2})$
