Newton's law of gravitation is universal because

A projectile is fired from the surface of the earth with a velocity of $7 m s ^{-1}$ and angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. Another projectile fired from another planet with a velocity of $2.5 m s ^{-1}$ at the same angle follows a trajectory which is identical with the trajectory of the projectile fired from the earth. The value of the acceleration due to gravity on the planet is (in $m s ^{-2}$ ) (given $g =9.8 m s ^{-2}$ )
