Gravitational force is 
GmM / r^2

Force is also m x a

When equating both of them, m cancels out, which leaves us with GM/r^2

Hope this helps

What does the potential energy diagram of a chemical reaction tell you
sattari [20]
By looking at the potential energies before and after the reaction, we can tell that the reaction is exothermic (final < initial) or endodermic (final > initial).

Also, the amount of activation energy gives an idea of the external energy required to initiate the reaction (for example, by heating the reactants).
Furthermore, by the same principle, we can also deduce the activation energy for the reverse reaction.

If a catalyst is available, the diagram will show a reduced activation energy, compared to a reaction without catalyst.  However, it will also show that the catalyst does not alter the initial and final energies of the reaction.

Why is it not advisable to touch a canvas tent from inside when it is raining?​
Sauron [17]

Answer: When you touch wet canvas, surface tension will draw water to your finger. However, the drop left behind where you touched, like any irregular point on an overhead surface, will draw condensation from inside the tent if it is humid.
