Question

Gravitational force between two masses m1 and m2 separated by r is proportional to:

RankGuru · Accepted Answer

Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation states that every point mass attracts every other point mass by a force acting along the line intersecting both points.
- The force ($F$) is directly proportional to the product of the masses ($m_1 m_2$).
- It is inversely proportional to the square of the distance ($r$) between them.
$F = G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}$
where $G \approx 6.674 	imes 10^{-11} 	ext{ N}\cdot	ext{m}^2	ext{/kg}^2$ is the gravitational constant.
