Every particle of matter in the universe attracts every other particle with a force that is directly proportional to the product of the masses of the particles and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. True or false?.

Respuesta :

Newton's law of universal gravitation tells us that all particles are attracted to each other with a force that is directly proportional to the product of the masses of the particles and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart. Hence, the answer to the question is true.

The statement on the question is in line with Newton's law of universal gravitation, which states that "the force of attraction between two objects with masses m1 and m2 is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart. The 'force of attraction' stated in the law the law is gravity. Mathematically, it is written as:

                         [tex]F= G\frac{m1*m2}{d^{2} }[/tex]

    where G is the universal gravitational constant.

This means that the force of gravity between two particles increases as the mass of the particles increase, and gravity exponentially reduces as the distance between the two particles increase.
