Gravitation force of sun is__________?
Correct answer: A. 274 m/s²
- A. 274 m/s²
- B. 362 m/s²
- C. 300 m/s²
- D. None of these
Explanation
The gravitational acceleration at the Sun's surface is approximately 274 m/s², found from g = GM/R². The likely wrong choice is 300 m/s², which is only a rough estimate and is not the accepted value used in standard physics tables.

About Potential Energy
Potential energy is energy stored because of position or configuration, including gravitational potential energy near Earth's surface and elastic energy in a stretched or compressed spring. Questions use changes in potential energy and conservation of mechanical energy, while distinguishing a chosen reference level from an absolute zero of energy.
