The force of attraction between two unit point masses separted by a unit distance is called

A

gravitational potential

B

accelerationa due to gravity

C

gravitational field

D

universal gravitational constant

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Form `F=(Gm_(1)m_(2))/d^(2)`
When `m_(1)=m_(2)=(1) and d =(1)`, `F=(Gxx1xx1)/(1)^(2)=G`, i.e., force of attraction =universal gravitational constant.
