Diffrence between g and G
  • 1 answers

Amar Kumar 8 years, 3 months ago

1.G stands for Newton's universal gravitational constant, whereas g stands for the acceleration due to gravity at a certain point.

2.G = 6.67300 × 10-11 N.m2.kg-2. G is a constant throughout space and time. g = 9.8 m.s-2.  g is a variable quantity.

3.G is a scalar quantity whereas g is a vector quantity.   

4.G is a constant at a given location, where g depends upon M and r.

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation the force of attraction between two bodies is given by

F = GMm/r2, where the symbols stand for their usual well known meanings. Also the weight of a body of mass m is F = mg. So mg = GMm/r2,  or g = GM/r
