What is the unit and dimensional formula of gravitational field intensity ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the unit and dimensional formula of gravitational field intensity, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Definition Gravitational field intensity (E) is defined as the force (F) experienced by a unit mass (m) placed in the field. The formula can be expressed as: \[ E = \frac{F}{m} \] ### Step 2: Identify the Unit of Force The unit of force (F) is the Newton (N). Therefore, we can express gravitational field intensity in terms of its units: ...
