– Gravitation

Summary: Objects in the universe attract each other with a force proportional to their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. This force is called the gravitational force.

– Universal Law of Gravitation

Summary: States that every object in the universe attracts every other object with a force that depends on their masses and the distance between them. The force acts along the line joining the centers of the objects.

– Motion of Objects Under the Influence of Gravitational Force of the Earth

Summary: All objects, regardless of their size or mass, fall from a height at the same rate under the influence of gravity. Air resistance affects the rate at which objects fall.

– Acceleration Due to Gravity

Summary: Acceleration due to gravity is the acceleration experienced by objects falling towards the Earth. It is denoted by 'g' and has a constant value of 9.8 m/s^2 near the Earth's surface.

– Archimedes’ Principle

Summary: Archimedes' principle states that objects immersed in a fluid experience an upward force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. This principle explains why some objects float while others sink in fluids.
