Question

The force of gravitation between two cricket balls is extremly small but that between a cricket ball and earth is extremly is large?

Answer 1

The force of gravitation between the earth and the ball is large than the two balls.

Step-by-step explanation:

The force of gravitation between the two bodies is directly proportional to the product of masses of two bodies and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

So, when we take cricket balls , the masses of balls is very small and the distance is also small so the force between the two balls is small.

When we take earth and the ball, the mass of earth is very large eve distance is very large so the force between the earth and the ball is large as compared to the two balls.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Gravitational force depends upon the product of masses of the object. Earth has siginificantly greater mass than cricket ball. The product of masses for two ball is very low as compared to the product of earth and ball mass. That is why the gravitational force between earth and ball is relatively larger than two balls.
