Questions from Dr. S K Jain and Dr. Shailesh K Jain Solutions for Chapter: Gravitation, Exercise 6: EXAM PRACTICE QUESTIONS with Hints & Solutions
What is the SI unit of acceleration due to gravity? What is its value on the surface of the Earth?

Define weight of a body. What are the units of weight?

Which of the two, and
(a) is a vector?
(b) does not change with the location on the earth's surface?

What happens to the weight of a person when he is
(a) at the top of a high mountain?
(b) deep inside the earth?
(c) at the centre of the earth?

Using Newton's law of gravitation, show that if the earth exerts equal force on two bodies held near earth, then their masses should be equal.

Show that the time taken by the two objects of different masses to fall through a certain height is equal.

When will we see two objects moving towards each other due to the gravitational force of attraction between them?

When two objects in the two pans of a balance are such that the two pans remain stationary at the same height, why do we say that their masses are equal?
