Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation

Newton’s law of universal gravitation is a physical law that states that every particle attracts every other particle in the universe with the force of attraction directly proportional to the product of the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. In other words, given any two objects A and B, separated by a distance d, there is a gravitational force F_AB between them (pulling each toward the other) of magnitude:

With Gravitational constant, G = 6.673 x 10^-11 NM²/kg²
