Law of Universal Gravity

Everything pulls on everything else.

Every body attracts every other body with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance separating them.

F = G (m1 x m2/r²)

  • Greater mass = greater force of attraction

  • Greater distance = weaker force of attraction

    • d = distance between their centers
