ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

I would like to express my special thanks of


gratitude to my physics teacher “Mr. SACHIN
KUMAR SAHU”, as well as our principal, “Mr.
KAPIL DEV SHUKLA” for providing me with the
opportunity to work on this beautiful project.

I am also grateful to my parents for their


constant support and help throughout the
project, without their encouragement and
support this project could not have been
completed on time.

Lastly, I would like to thank all the accessories


and every single person who helped me to
complete this physics project successfully.

ABSTRACT
Every body in the universe attracts every
other body with a force called force of
GRAVITATION.
Thus, gravitation is the force of attraction
between
any two bodies in the universe. The attraction
between sun and earth and a table and chair
lying in a room are some examples of
gravitation.
Gravitation is weakest of the four basic forces.
Gravity is a special case of gravitation, about
which we are going to discuss in details in this
project.

METHODOLOGY
For the accomplishment of this project
investigation has been preferred. This project
has been conducted by keen observation on
the objects that act under the Law Of
Gravitation. All objects or particles undergo
gravitation and this is an example of how
ideas in science develop into laws and
theories to know about the motion of
heavenly bodies.

DATA CONTENTS

In this project we are going to focus on:-


1. Kepler's Three Laws of Planetary
Motion.
2. Applications of Kepler's Law.
3. Newton's Universal Law Of
Gravitation.
4. What is Freefall?
5. What is acceleration due to gravity?
6. Difference between Kepler's Law and
Newton's Law.
7. Theories about planetary motion.
8. What is weightlessness?

DATA ANALYSIS
1.Kepler's Three Laws Of Planetary
Motion :-

The law of Orbital -


All planets move in elliptical orbits around the
sun with the sun at one focus.

 The laws of Area -


The line Joining centre of a planet and the sun
sweeps equal areas in equal interval of time, that
is the areal velocity of the planet around the sun is
constant.

 The laws of Period or Harmonic law -


The square of time period of revolution of a planet
around the sun is proportional to the cube of the
semi major axis of its elliptical orbit.

figure 6.3

2.Applications of kepler's law


 Solar System
 Artificial Satellite
 Moon's revolution around the planet
 Whenever inverse square law is involved

3. Newton's universal law of gravitation


Every particle in the universe attracts other particle with
a force which is directly proportional to the product of
their masses and inversely proportional to the square of
the distance between them.

Figure 6.4

Here, F1 and F2 are magnitude of gravitational force


and m1 and m2 are masses of two paricles, r is the
distance between both the particles and G is universal
gravitational constant.
4.What is free fall?
The motion of a body under the influence of gravity
alone is called freefall. If we neglect the resistance or
friction offered by air, the fall of a body in air is a free fall.

5. What is acceleration due to


gravity?

When a body falls freely toward the surface of earth, its


velocity continuously increases. The acceleration
developed in its motion is called acceleration due to
gravity which is produced when the object is freely
falling under the gravitational pull of the earth is called
acceleration due to gravity. It is denoted by 'g'. And is a
vector quantity directed toward the earth independent of
mass, size and shape of the body.

6. Difference between kepler's and newton's law :-


6.1 Theories about planetary motion :- Since ancient
time, scientists have been studying the motion of celestial objects

like sun, moon, planets, etc.

Some of these note-worthy theories are as follows

6.1.1 Geocentric model: According to this model, "the earth remained

stationary at the centre and all planets, moon, sun and other stars

revolve around the sun".


6.1.2 Heliocentric model: In 1543, Nicolaus Copernicus suggested

that "the sun is at the centre of the solar system and the earth and other

planets revolve around it".

6.1.3 Aryabhatta's contribution: Aryabhatta proposed that "the earth

revolve round the sun along with other planets and also rotates around

its own axis".

7. What is weightlessness?

When a body presses against a supporting surface, the supportin surface

exerts opposite force on the body. This force of reaction creates a feeling

of weight and if somehow this reaction force becomes zero,

CONCLUSION

Newton's law as well as Kepler's law


has helped us a lot in the field of
gravitation and also in the field of
physics. His concept was also used in
technology of rocket propulsion,
hence he is considered one of the
greatest physics.
From Kepler's 3rd law we can deduce
the law of gravitation. Gravitation
give us idea about the theories of
planetary motion like; Geocentric
model, Heliocentric’
