... In grade 11 Physics, we said that g was equal to 9.81m/s2. In truth, this is just an approximation, and the value of g varies at different points on the earth depending on how far one is from the earth’s surface. This is because of the inverse-square relationship of the Universal Gravitational Law ...

... Since the expression (42K) is a constant, the force of gravitational attraction on a planet is directly proportional to the mass of the planet and inversely proportional to the square of its distance from the sun. We saw in the previous lesson that Kepler’s constant is the same for any object circl ...
