Question
8 which of the following predicts that an apple will drop to the ground when it falls from a tree?
○ law of planetary motion
○ theory of relativity
○ law of gravity
○ law of motion
The law of gravity, formulated by Newton, states that every mass - attracts every other mass by a force acting along the line joining the centers of the two masses. An apple falling from a tree is pulled towards the Earth due to the gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the apple. The law of planetary motion deals with the motion of planets around the sun, the theory of relativity is about space - time and gravity at high speeds or in strong gravitational fields, and the law of motion is a set of laws related to the relationship between a body and the forces acting upon it and its motion in response to those forces.
