Transcribed Image Text:Dimensional analysis: Show the derivation for the value of acceleration due to gravity (g) by equating the equations
of force
m,m2
F = G
r2
By considering the following relations and constants below:
• F = mg (weight)
G = 6.67 x 10-11 Nm2/kg?
m = m1
m2 = mẹ = 5.97 x 1024 kg (mass of the Earth)
• r = 6.37 x 106 m (Earth's radius)
Find and check whether the derived equation is dimensionally correct. Hint: g = 9.8 m/s?
