According to the Henry Cavendish experiment conducted in 1797–1798, what was the value of the universal gravitational constant (G)?
Options :
- 7.75 × 10⁻¹³ N m²/kg²
- 5.75 × 10⁻¹⁰ N m²/kg²
- 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²
- 3.75 × 10⁻¹⁰ N m²/kg²
correct answer : c)
Explanation :
Henry Cavendish experimentally determined the value of the universal gravitational constant as G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg².
