If two masses 1 kg and 10 kg are 1 m apart, then acceleration of:

Correct answer: B. 1 kg is greater than that of 10 kg

  • A. Both masses is same
  • B. 1 kg is greater than that of 10 kg
  • C. 10 kg is greater that that of 1 kg
  • D. Both masses is zero

Explanation

Gravitational acceleration on the mass of 1kg is = G x 10/12 =10 GSimilarly, gravitational acceleration on the mass of 10kg is = 1GHence it can be seen that 1kg mass accelerates 10 times more than the 10kg mass.
