State Newton’s universal law of gravitation. Express it with the mathematical form of force of gravitation?

उत्तर
- Gravitational force between two bodies in the universe is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
- The mathematical equation for the law is given as, F = G`("m"_1"m"_2)/"r"^2` where G is universal gravitational constant, m1 and m2 are masses and r is the distance between two masses.
