ABSTRACT

Everybody in the universe attracts every


other body with a force called force of
GRAVITATION.
Thus, gravitation is the force of attraction
between any two bodies in the universe!
The attraction between sun and earth and
a table and chair lying in a room are some
examples of gravitation!
Gravitation is weakest of the four basic
forces!
METHODOLOGY
For the accomplishment of this
project investigation has been
preferred. This project has been
conducted by keen
observation on the objects that
act under the law of gravitation

All objects of particle


undergoes gravitation and this
is an example of how ideas in
Science develop into laws and
theories to know about the
motion of heavenly bodies
DATA CONTENTS
In this project we are going to
focus on
 Kepler’s three laws of
planetary motion!
 Applications of Kepler’s
Law!
 Newton’s Universal law of
gravitation!
 What is freefall?
 what is acceleration due to
gravity
 Difference between Kepler’s
law and Newton’s law!
 Theories about planetary
motion!
 what is weightlessness
DATA ANALYSIS
1. Kepler’s Three Laws Of
Planetary Motion!

 The law of Orbital :-


All planets move in
elliptical orbits around
the sun with the sun at
one focus!

 The laws of Area :-


The line joining centre of a
planet and the sun sweeps
equal areas in equal interval of
time, that is the real velocity of
the planet around the sun is
constant!

 The laws of period or


harmonic law :-
The square of time period of
revolution of a planet around the sun
is proportional to the cube of the semi
major axis of its elliptical orbit!

2. Application of kepler’s law

 Solar System
 Artificial satellite
 Moon’s revolution around
the planet
 Whenever inverse square
law is involved
3. Newton’s universal law of
gravitation
Every particle in the universe attracts
other particle with a force which is
directly proportional to the product of
their masses and inversely proportional to
the square of the distance between them!

Here, F1 and F2 are magnitude of


gravitational force and M1 and M2 are
masses of two particles, r is the distance
between both the particles and G is
universal gravitational constant!
4. What is free fall ?
The motion of a body under the
influence of gravity alone is called
freefall! If we neglect the resistance or
friction offered by air, the fall of a
body in air is a free fall!

5. What is acceleration due


to gravity?
When the object is freely falling
under the gravitational pull of the
earth is called acceleration due to
gravity! It is denoted by g and is a
vector quantity directed toward the
earth independent of mass, size and
shape of the body!
6. Difference between
Kepler’s law and Newton’s
law

Sr Newton’s law Kepler’s law


no.
1 about motion and force motion of planetary
system
2 It is kinematics It is dynamics
3 Involve interaction between do not involve
objects Interaction
4 Relation among force, relation among
mass, distance and time! distance and time
only
7. Theories about planetary
motion
Since ancient time, scientists have
been studying the motion of celestial
objects like sun, moon, planets, etc.

Some of these note -worthy theories


are as follows
 Geocentric model:
According to this model, "the earth
remained stationary at the centre and all
planets, moon, sun and other stars revolve
around the sun
 Heliocentric model:
In 1543 Nicolaus copernicus suggested
that "the sun is at the centre of the solar
system and the earth and other planets
revolve around it"
 Aryabhatta’s contribution:
Aryabhatta proposed that "the earth
revolve round the sun along with other
planets and also rotates around its own
axis"
8. what is weightlessness ?
when a body presses against a
supporting surface,the supporting
surface exerts opposite force on the
body! This force of reaction creates a
feeling of weight and if somehow this
reaction force becomes zero,
Conclusion
Newton’s law as well as Kepler’s
law has helped us a lot in the field
of gravitation and also in the field
of physics. His concept was also
used in technology of rocket
propulsion, hence he is considered
one of the greatest physics!

From Kepler’s 3rd law we can


deduce the law of gravitation!

Gravitation give us idea about the


theories of planetary motion like
geocentric model, heliocentric
model, etc.!
