This statement describes Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation: F = G (m₁m₂)/r². It states that every mass attracts every other mass with a force proportional to their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance.
Information Booster
- Law of Gravitation: F = G m₁m₂/r².
- G is the universal gravitational constant.
- This law explains planetary motion.
- It is distinct from acceleration, inertia, or reaction.
- Law of Acceleration: F = ma.
- Law of Inertia: objects resist change in motion.
- Law of Reaction: action‑reaction pairs.
The gravitational force is the weakest of the four fundamental forces but dominates on a cosmic scale.
