1. The force that keeps objects on the surface of the Earth is an example of gravitational force. It holds us and other objects firmly on the ground, preventing us from floating away into space.
2. The orbital motion of planets in our solar system is due to the gravitational force exerted by the Sun. This force keeps the planets in their elliptical orbits around the Sun.
3. When you drop an object from a height, it falls towards the Earth due to the gravitational force. The acceleration with which it falls is approximately 9.8 meters per second squared, known as the acceleration due to gravity.
What are 3 examples of gravitational force that you know or that are around you?
