Gravitation for All SSC Exams Start Now!!!
Overview
We will cover SSC Gravitation in very creative way as required in SSC Exam. In this topic we will cover gravitation concept with PYQ questions. All questions are provided with topic so that we know what is important for us in this topic. You can also share feedback about this topic.
How we do?
- First we will learn the concept with picture explanation.
- All important questions attach with the topic.
- we use flash card for better understanding the concept and learn the fact.
- At last we use the quiz to check out our performance.
Universal Law of Gravitation
Formula
- Every point mass attracts every other point mass by a force acting along the line intersecting both points. The force is proportional to the product of the two masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
- Gravitational Constant (G): Value is 6.67×10−11 Nm2/kg2 6.67×10−11Nm2/kg2. Discovered by Henry Cavendish in 1798.
Type of questions can be asked from this topic
- Doubling distance (r) reduces gravitational force (F) to one-fourth: F∝/r2.
- Tripling mass (m) triples gravitational force: F∝m1×m2.
- Doubling Earth’s mass (Earth) doubles gravitational force: F∝M
- Gravitational force between two students is negligible: distance ≈0 F≈0.
- At highest point, gravitational force on a ball equals its weight: F=mg.
- Two planets 10 times farther apart experience one-hundredth the force: due to inversely r square
- Halving gravitational acceleration (g) halves astronaut’s weight: Weight=mg.
- Moving twice as far from Earth’s center quarters gravitational force: due to inversely r square
- Doubling satellite’s altitude quarters gravitational force: due to inversely r square .
- Gravitational force on 10 kg object on Moon is 16 N: Moon=10×1.6.
Formula
- Description: The force between two charges is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
- S.I unit of charge: Coulomb (important directly asked by examiner)
Type of questions can be asked from this topic
- Doubling the distance (r) between two charges reduces the electrostatic force (F) to one-fourth: F∝/r2.
- Tripling the magnitude of one charge (q) triples the electrostatic force: F∝q1×q2.
- The S.I. unit of charge is the Coulomb.
- Both gravitational and electrostatic forces are conservative: work done in a closed path is zero.
- Halving the distance between two charges quadruples the electrostatic force: F∝/r2.
- Doubling the magnitude of both charges quadruples the electrostatic force: F∝q1×q2.
- Opposite charges attract each other: if one charge is positive and the other is negative, the force is attractive.
- The electrostatic force is undefined at a distance of zero:
- A characteristic of conservative forces is that work done in a closed path is zero.
- If the distance between two charges is tripled and one of the charges is doubled, the electrostatic force becomes 2/9 of the original force: just use the formula
Similarities between Gravitational and Electrostatic Forces
- Both are non-contact and conservative forces.
- Work done is independent of the path.
- Work done in a closed path is zero.
Kepler’s Planetary Laws
- Law of Orbits: Planets move in elliptical orbits with the Sun at one focus.
Here is a visual based on Kepler’s first law, showing planets on elliptical orbits with the Sun positioned off-center.
2. Law of Areas: A line segment joining a planet and the Sun sweeps out equal areas during equal intervals of time.
This illustration depicts Kepler’s Law of Areas, which states that a line segment joining a planet and the Sun sweeps out equal areas during equal intervals of time
3. Law of Periods: The square of the orbital period of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit.
Kepler’s Third Law, also known as the Law of Harmonies, states that the square of the orbital period (T) of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis (a) of its orbit.
Difference between Mass and Weight
Property Mass Weight Nature Intrinsic property Force due to gravity Quantity Scalar Vector Unit Kilogram (kg) Newton (N) Changes Constant Varies with gravity
Weight: force by which Earth attracts a mass
Force = m x a Weight = m x g
Here mass is constant but gravity differsVariation in gravity
Aspect of Gravity Explanation Gravity at Poles vs Equator Gravity is stronger at the poles than at the equator. Gravity with Altitude As altitude increases, gravity decreases. Gravity on the Moon vs Earth The moon’s gravity is 1/6th that of Earth’s.
Vary g = 9.8 m/s ~ 10 m/s
Different from “G”
which is constantType of questions can be asked from the above topic
1.Which Kepler’s Law states that planets move in elliptical orbits with the Sun at one focus?
Answer: Kepler’s First Law (Law of Orbits).
2. According to Kepler’s Second Law, what remains constant as a planet orbits the Sun?
Answer: The area swept out by the line segment joining the planet and the Sun in equal intervals of time (Law of Areas).
3. How does the cube of the semi-major axis of a planet’s orbit relate to the square of its orbital period?
Answer: The cube of the semi-major axis is directly proportional to the square of the orbital period (Kepler’s Third Law – Law of Periods).
4. What is the difference between mass and weight?
Answer: Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity.
5. How does weight change with the strength of the gravitational field?
Answer: Weight increases with the strength of the gravitational field and decreases as the gravitational field weakens.
6. What is the SI unit of mass?
Answer: Kilogram (kg).
7. What force is responsible for the weight of an object?
Answer: Gravitational force.
8. How does the distance between two objects affect the gravitational force between them?
Answer: The gravitational force decreases as the square of the distance between the two objects increases (inverse square law).
9. What law explains the proportional relationship between gravitational force and the product of two masses?
Answer: Newton’s Universal Law of Gravitation.
10. How does the weight of an object on the Moon compare to its weight on Earth?
Answer: The weight of an object on the Moon is about one-sixth of its weight on Earth due to the Moon’s weaker gravitational fieldLearn More

Motion for All SSC Exams Start Now!!
What Causes Motion?
- Motion is caused due to force.
A force can bring a resting body into motion, bring a moving body to rest, speed up or slow down a body, change the direction of a body, and change the shape or size of a body.
Concept of force
- The SI unit of force is the Newton (N).
- Forces can be balanced (net force = 0, no acceleration) or unbalanced (net force ≠ 0, causes acceleration).
- Forces can be contact (e.g., frictional force) or non-contact (e.g., gravitational force).
- Forces can be conservative (work done is independent of the path) or non-conservative (work done depends on the path).
Laws of Motion:
- First Law of Motion (Inertia): An object remains at rest or in motion at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force.
- Example: A person sitting in a moving car is pushed forward when the car stops abruptly.
- Second Law of Motion (Momentum): The rate of change of momentum is proportional to the applied force and occurs in the direction of the force.
- Example: A truck has more momentum than a bullet bike if its mass is greater than the bike’s velocity.
Relate all the examples from the pictureThird Law of Motion: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
- Example: A rocket expels gas downwards, and as a reaction, it moves upwards.
Conservation of Momentum:
- The total momentum before and after a collision is conserved.
Example: If a moving object collides with a stationary object, the total momentum before and after the collision remains the same.
One-liners (MCQs):
- The range of weak nuclear force is of the order of 10^-18 m.
- The force of friction always opposes the applied forces.
- The force of the Earth’s gravity on every kilogram is about 10 N.
- Gravitational force is an example of an “action at a distance” force.
- Once a satellite is launched into orbit, the only force governing its motion is the force of gravity.
- The SI unit of Electrostatic force is Coulomb (C).
- Torque is the measure of force that can cause an object to rotate about an axis.
